List of mountains in Hungary

This list of mountains in Hungary is actually a series of sortable tables of major mountain peaks of Hungary. The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured or sorted in several ways.

  1. The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level.[1] The first table below ranks the 10 highest major summits of Hungary by elevation with a prominence of 5 m or more. The second table is the same, just with a prominence of 100 m or more.
  2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The third table below ranks the 20 most prominent summits of Hungary.
  3. The highest summit of a given area. It could be an administrative region (e.g. county as it is in fourth table) or a mountain range as it is in fifth table.
  4. The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.
