Where It Happens

Indoors at the Page Training Hall (Apródképző) on the Puchner Estate, nestled at the foot of the Mecsek Mountains in rolling, storybook countryside across more than 34.59 acres of old-growth trees. Next door, the Adventure Estate (Élménybirtok) brings the Middle Ages roaring to life—armor, ambiance, the works.

Eat Like It’s the Middle Ages

Keep the adventure going at the famed Inn of the White Swan (Fogadó a Fehér Hattyúhoz) near the South Gate and swan lake, where the scent of hearty dishes and medieval décor lures you in from afar.

+
Serene countryside setting near the Mecsek Mountains gives off “storybook Hungary” vibes - Bikal and the Puchner/Adventure Estate aren’t internationally famous, so there’s less name recognition for foreign visitors
Cons
Reaching Bikal can be tricky without a car; public transit options are limited and multi-step from major cities
Hungarian may be helpful for on-site details and date changes; English support is likely but not guaranteed
Compared to big-city craft studios in Prague/Vienna, it’s less accessible but wins on price and atmosphere
