Gyula town is a holiday resort having 35 thousand inhabitants in the southeast part of Hungary, 220 km far from Budapest.

However for us, who live here, it is more. We worship our town as parochialists. We are proud of our culture, history, thermal water of curative power, physical and natural environment: buildings, trees, flowers and waters. We enjoy our inner town, the many-many programmes and the bustle. Thanks to Gyula we feel in this place so, even in the everyday life that WE ARE ON OUR SUMMER HOLIDAY!

The weather of Gyula

Like most Central and Western European cities, Gyula weather in winter (December to February) is accompanied with heavy snow and very cold temperatures. The city is blanketed with snow across several weeks each year. Summer months (June to August) can bring about mild to high temperatures of around 27°C; however, it is not all that uncommon for summer days to edge over 30°C.

Summer

During summer, from April till August, Gyula remains hot. The average maximums climb to 20 ºC while the low stands at mid-teens. July with more than 27 ºC and 276 hours of sunshine is considered as the hottest and sunniest month of the year. Although temperature seems somewhat unpleasant, it is one of the best seasons to visit Gyula.

Insurance

The Organizers of the Camp do not provide insurance and do not take responsibility for any loss, accident or illness that might occur during the Camp or in the course of travel to or from the meeting site. It is, therefore, the responsibility of the participants to check their coverage with their insurance provider.

Bank, Currency, Credit Cards

The unit of currency is the Hungarian Forint (HUF), denoted as “Ft” by the Hungarians. International credit cards (EC/MC, Visa) are accepted at most hotels, restaurants and shops. AMEX is rarely accepted by retailers. ATMs are available at the Airport and all over the city. (1 EUR is equivalent to approx. 310 HUF).
