Őrség Team-Building Adventure – On Two Wheels, In the Workshop, In Nature
A 2–3-day experience program in one of Hungary’s most untouched regions
In Őrség, nature, tradition and local flavours become real, tangible experiences. Your team will meet people who don’t just preserve the values of the landscape—they live by them every day. A few days spent among rolling hills, forest trails, artisan workshops and local producers offers genuine connection, shared creation and deep recharge.
Őrség is the perfect choice for teams seeking an honest, active and inspiring retreat.
Highlights of the Program
Essential Oil Distillery Visit & Herbal Steam Bath
Participants visit a working essential oil distillery, where the extraction process evokes the methods of medieval alchemy. On request, a herbal steam bath inspired by Laotian traditions is also available.
The evening closes with a relaxed outdoor dinner: kettle-cooked dishes, homemade strudel and local tastings.
Cycling Tour in the Őrség National Park
For the second day, we recommend a light 20 km cycling tour, available with E-bikes or traditional bikes. The route leads through moorlands, forest valleys and village paths, passing the Szőce peatland and the picturesque landscapes near Szaknyér.
A stop at a local restaurant allows the team to taste regional classics such as dödölle and vasi pecsenye. A cosy, nature-side coffee break is also part of the tour.
The afternoon can be spent relaxing or swimming in Lake Vadása, followed by a communal grill dinner. The herbal steam bath is available again in the evening.
Artisan Team Workshops: Leathercraft & Blacksmithing
Two local master artisans host immersive workshops in Őriszentpéter.
● Leathercraft workshop: participants work with natural materials to create bracelets, earrings or braided necklaces. These can be combined with forged pendants from the blacksmith’s workshop.
● Blacksmith workshop: participants can forge horseshoes, arrowheads, small functional items or copper jewellery. Medieval-style music and the workshop’s atmosphere make this a uniquely memorable experience.
Gastronomy & Pumpkin Seed Oil Press Visit
A handcrafted, modern-yet-traditional lunch awaits the group in a private dining venue in Szalafő.
Afterwards, the team visits an authentic pumpkin seed oil press to learn about traditional and cold-pressed oil production. A tasting includes pumpkin seed, apricot kernel, rosehip, linseed, poppy seed, grape seed, walnut and hazelnut oils.
