We can reach Bél Mátyás Observation Tower on the top of the 221 meters tall Gagra-hegy (Gagra Hill) that towers over Balatongyörök through the Boroszlán Study Trail. Eight information boards will tell us more about the flora and fauna of Keszthelyi-hegység during the trail, and the walk is rewarded by an amazing view.
