How to Get to Borsodnádasd#

From the airport take bus 100E or a taxi to Nyugati/Keleti railway stations (bus single ticket ≈ HUF 900-1000, ~35-45 minutes to the city centre). From Budapest Keleti/Örs Vezér or Nyugati, take MÁV regional/intercity trains toward Miskolc; change as needed for local services to Borsodnádasd (total rail time Budapest-Borsodnádasd typically 2.5-3.5 hours).

How to Get Around Borsodnádasd#
The easiest way to reach Borsodnádasd is by rail via Miskolc from Budapest, then a short regional train or bus. For flexibility and to reach rural spots, consider renting a car.
- Intercity trains (MÁV IC/Express) (HUF 1,800-4,000+) - Intercity trains connect Budapest with Miskolc in around 2-2.5 hours; these are the fastest rail link into the region. From Miskolc transfer to regional local trains for the last part of the journey.
- Regional trains (MÁV) (HUF 300-1,200) - MÁV regional services serve small stations like Borsodnádasd; they are inexpensive and reliable but can be slow with multiple stops. Buy tickets at stations or via the MÁV app and validate when required.
- Regional buses (Volánbusz) (HUF 200-700) - Volánbusz runs the local bus network for towns not directly on the rail line. Buses are good for connections from Miskolc or Ózd to Borsodnádasd; watch timetables as frequency drops off in evenings and weekends.
- Taxi / private transfer (HUF 4,000-12,000+) - Taxis offer convenient transfers from Miskolc or the airport in Budapest for direct door-to-door travel - useful for early arrivals or luggage-heavy trips. Agree a price in advance or use a licensed company.
- Car hire (€25-€60/day) - Hiring a car is often the most flexible way to explore the region and reach smaller villages on your own schedule. Roads are generally in good condition; winter driving can require care.
