What to do
in a free time
If you’d like to spend some time in nature, there is a small forest next to the hotel with a 5 km loop trail. Another forest, Farkas-erdő (in Káposztásmegyer), is about 4 km from the hotel. It has a small map and can be reached by public transportation or by car.
FARKAS-ERDŐ (Káposztásmegyer)
If you plan to visit the Aquaworld water park, please note that you will need to pay for it when you check out of the hotel. However, the hotel also offers its own pools, sauna, and fitness facilities, which are free to use if you choose not to go to Aquaworld.
If you do want to go to Aquaworld, you can enjoy it at half the regular price. You can go back and forth as many times as you like during the day.
Here are the special daily rates we've arranged with the hotel:
-
0–6 years – Free
-
7–13 years – 3,500 HUF
-

The hotel also has a fitness center, game room, and the Bongo indoor playground, all of which are free to use.
Visit the WOL Hungary
If you would like to visit Word of Life Hungary in Tóalmás, please register by March 14th, 2023.
Departure from the hotel will be at 14:00, with return around 17:30. The price will be set by the driver. For a 5-seat vehicle, we recommend contributing around 3–5 euros per person.
