You step out of the transfer into a cool, pine-scented afternoon at Normafa, the Buda Hills’ favorite breathing spot. The exoskeleton straps on like an odd, friendly backpack — a light mechanical promise that the uphill will feel different. As you move, the device hums support into your stride; the forest seems to take the pace personally, nudging you toward the ridgeline and the stone tower above.
