The experience

Pine trees. Open sky. Just the forest.

Normafa is Budapest’s green rooftop. The walk begins at the Székelykapu, a carved Transylvanian gate at the forest edge, and moves through pine woodland, open meadows, and quiet clearings.

No grand buildings, no famous squares. Just the light through the trees, and whatever comes up when there’s nothing else to look at.

Something about being outside makes people more honest. This is Along at its most natural.

Good to know

Wear comfortable shoes! The terrain is uneven forest path — nothing technical, but not city pavement either. Works in all seasons.

How it works

25 GPS stops, no fixed path. Walk to any of them, in any order, and the question unlocks when you arrive. Just the two of you and the city.

What you'll find

25 stops
Your order

The stops here aren’t museums or monuments. They’re clearings, paths, graves, gates — moments in the forest that earn a question.

Transylvanian gate

The traditional Transylvanian gate that marks the start. Carved wood, a symbol of passage. You step through it and the forest begins.
 

Makkos-meadow

A wide forest meadow where the oak trees open up. The city is already gone. A question about what you leave behind when you come somewhere like this.
 

Csacsi-meadow

A quieter clearing further along the trail. The kind of place that makes you stop walking without meaning to. A question about stillness.
 

The grave of the three soldiers

The grave of three soldiers, deep in the forest. A small marker, easy to miss. A question about what we remember — and what gets forgotten.

No city here.
Just trees, and what you want to say.

High above Budapest, the air changes. Birdsong, pine scent, long views down to the city. Up here, conversations slow down and go a little deeper.
