🇭🇺 Hungría

Estaciones de tren

Hungría's rail network is operated by MAV (Magyar Allamvasutak), with Budapest as the central hub. InterCity trains connect Budapest to Pecs (2h50m), Miskolc (2h), Debrecen (2h30m), and Gyor (1h30m) at speeds up to 160 km/h. MAV-START operates domestic services while GYSEV serves western Hungría and Austria. Budapest is also a major European rail crossroads: direct RJ Railjet services connect to Viena (2h40m), Múnich (6h), and Zúrich (8h). EC trains reach Praga (7h), Varsovia (11h), and Bratislava (1h). The EuroNight trains include the Orient Express successor routes to Bucarest, Belgrade, and Zagreb. Budapest's urban rail network is one of Central Europe's most extensive, combining Metro (4 lines including Line 1, Europe's second-oldest metro opened in 1896), HEV suburban railways, trams, and buses under the BKK transport authority. A single BKK pass covers all modes. MAV has invested in new Stadler KISS and Flirt trainsets for domestic routes, improving comfort significantly on main corridors. Tickets are sold via jegy.mav.hu and the MÁV app. The MAV Bérlet monthly pass covers unlimited domestic travel. Hungría is included in the Eurail/Interrail Global Pass; seat reservations are required on InterCity trains (around HUF 400-800). Advance booking is particularly important for summer travel on the Lake Balaton lines, which are heavily used by domestic tourists.
