Culinary Vespa Tour in the Volcano Country

• The starting point of our Vespa ride is the Locker & Légere in St. Ruprecht an der Raab.
• We drive through the town in a southerly direction, i.e. Gleisdorf, and turn off after a few metres on the main road to Wollsdorf. Here is the first destination of the tour.
• We visit the Steirerkraft Kernothek and immerse ourselves in the world of green gold. Kernel oil is pressed here and pumpkin seed products are made and sold. A worthwhile excursion destination free of charge with the Genusscard!

• Now we continue to Albersdorf, Prebuch, Großpesendorf, Prebensdorf, Egelsdorf and Sinabelkirchen. From here the route takes us into the Styrian volcano country.
• We continue to Gnies, Markt Hartmannsdorf, Ottendorf, Walkersdorf, Neustift, Lembach-Egg and Riegersburg. Here our gaze falls on the imposing Riegersburg Castle, which towers majestically over the entire Vulkanland.

• We can make the ascent to Riegersburg either by lift or on foot. On a guided tour of the castle we learn legendary stories of witches and knights. The bird of prey show at the castle is a special highlight on our round trip!
• A place to relax is the Riegersburg lakeside spa. Admission to the baths is free with the Genusscard. If you just want to fortify yourself and not swim, the lakeside spa is also a perfect place. Fine gastronomy in a beautiful ambience directly on the lake.
• More culinary stops await us in Riegersburg (all free with the Genusscard): tasting at the Vulkanland Sektmanufaktur, tasting and guided tour of the Gölles vinegar factory, Wippel wine experience. An absolute must on this tour is a visit to the world-famous Zotter chocolate factory. Here, too, the guided tour and tasting are free with the Genusscard.

• Now we are well fortified and have tasted the delicacies of Styria. We now continue to Gniebing, Feldbach, Berndorf, Kirchberg an der Raab, Studenzen, St. Margarethen an der Raab, Hofstätten and Gleisdorf.
• The town full of energy is characterised by shops and cafés. Now we continue to Ludersdorf, where we visit the castle and the golf club Gut Freiberg. The well-kept golf course, with probably the best green in Styria, is an oasis of peace.
• Finally we drive to Fünfing and end the day back at our starting point, St. Ruprecht an der Raab.

• Overnight stay at Hotel Locker & Légere**** directly in the centre of St. Ruprecht an der Raab!
• Over 120 excursion destinations, enjoyment stations and experiences with the GenussCard FREE OF CHARGE.

For local transportation we recommend the SAM-Sammeltaxi Oststeiermark.
