The Zengő [ ˈzɛŋɡøː ] is at 682 m the highest mountain in the southern Hungarian Mecsek Mountains . It is continuously overgrown with deciduous forest, only in very few cool and shady places there is a little - somewhat ailing - coniferous forest .
Some time ago, a large-scale environmental protection campaign to protect the Zengő was running because the Hungarian government wants to build a radar system on the Mecsek for military surveillance of the airspace , even though the mountain is under nature protection. However, these plans were abandoned in 2011.
The Zengő can be reached via hiking trails from Hosszúhetény , Püspökszentlászló , Kisújbánya and Pécsvárad .
