Definition and Mission

Rural tourism can be described in Hungary as all activities around tourism outside the cities. Key rural attractions for foreigners are Lake Balaton and the puszta with its folklore and horses.

Rural tourism in Hungary has to be strengthened by organizing training courses to improve the knowledge, know-how and attitude of the rural entrepreneurs and employees. It is a challenge to stimulate more co-operation between the rural tourism entrepreneurs, local and regional authorities. The entrepreneurs have to be encouraged to cooperate together in foundations. For example to have a more efficient marketing and booking system. The internet use and connections has to spread more over the country site.
