Facts and practical information

Vida Hill is a hill in the XVII district of Budapest, on the border of Rákoskert and Ecser. Its height, according to a 1989 military map, is 201.3 metres, and from the top it offers one of the most beautiful panoramas of the Pest side, the protected Merzse marsh and Ferihegy Airport. Since Easter 1992, the top of the hill has been topped by a 6-metre-high flat wooden cross, while a bomb crater from the Second World War can still be seen on the side of the hill.

Concerts, festivals, celebrations and local festivals are often held in the area.
