Bába-kő

Everyone has to come here😁

Beautiful geyser!

It is worth watching and reading the legend of its origin! "On the border of Gyöngyössolymos, the small rock that seems insignificant is a geological rarity. The legendary Báb-stone is a great destination for cycling between Gyöngyös and Mátrafüred! The Puppet Stone lies on a parkland near the Gyöngyössolési branch of Route 24 to Mátrafüred. Its formation: hot gases and vapors burst from the deep during volcanic post-production, heat springs and geysers. The silica-rich warm water of the geysers transformed the rocks of the mountain, creating an entirely new type of geyser, the geyser. According to one superstitious folk belief, it got its name from the fact that witches were once burned here. Another belief was that the spirit of old Matra was chasing the iron-dummy he couldn't catch, so he threw this big stone in anger. That's why it's called Puppet. "

A mystical place in the Mátra.

March 28, 2020, was the day I looked at the place. I went past 100x next to it as there is no sign that there is anything to it. 5p on foot from the bike path through a nice path. Magical place. Fortunately, they don't go for it very much. It seems almost untouched.
