CSIKI RECREATIONAL PARK - TÖRÖKUGRATÓ

If you start walking downhill from the Csiki Tanya stop of the bus number 88, you will reach the Recreational Park at Virág utca 6 in 3 minutes. In connection with the archaeological excavation of Middle Age Csik village, an Árpád Age archaeological park was created in this area, where visitors can experience our ancestors' everyday life through a thatched-roofed pit-house, bread-baking and potter's furnaces, yurtas and period gardens. In order to make the forest school programme and summer camps even more enjoyable, a number of further sights have been created recently: an American Indian village, a wooden castle, a playground, a potter's workshop, grassy and sandy sports fields, an archery field, a swimming pool, a fishpond, etc. Regardless of the season you arrive in this park full of trees, the New World garden and the Middle Age monastery garden are worth a visit. Also, you should not miss baking a „lepény" and cooking in a „bogrács"! If you leave Csiki Recreational Park and walk along Virág, and then Hóvirág and Rézvirág utca, you will reach 249-m-high, uniquely valuable Törökugrató. By passing some locust-trees and then a planted Australian pine-forest, you reach the turfy dolomite hillside where visitors are received by a wonderful assortment of flowers in spring. The first flowers in April are light violet actinias, with bright yellow flowers of pheasant's eye, small, blue-flowered grape-hyacinths and irises among wild agrimonies and stonecrops. As for protected plants, one may find a field of feather-grass, beautiful yellow sun-roses and gold-dust, Jupiter's beard, meadow-sage and purple Hungarian carnation. Bushes warm visitors' heart with their flowers (pink almond) in spring and with their delicious and healthy fruit (cornel-berry, sloe-bush, rose-hips, hedge-thorn, elderberry). Once you have returned from the peak, the former quarry is well worth a visit: you can observe several million year old animal and plant remains in its sediment. You can return to the bus stop at Szabadság út by walking down Törökugrató utca.
