Gourmet Locations

Local grocery stores are veritable lands of milk and honey. Sample the delicacies to your stomach’s content, and pile your basket to the brim with delicious goodies to take home: a gift for virtually all the senses. Southeast Styria is a region that knows how to be creative: you only have to look at the truffle-flavoured pumpkin spread by Johann Koller or the young asparagus in balsamic vinegar from Reicher to realise this... Or the damson chutney by Bettina Fink, the aromatic honey from Imkerei Kohl, sheep’s cheese, wrapped in “Neusetzer” (white Mangalica bacon)... The list goes on.

A time-honoured tradition beloved by visitors and locals alike, farmers’ markets in Styria’s Thermen- & Vulkanland are enduringly popular.

Bread, pastries, and home-made delicacies such as jam, pasta, chutney, wine and schnapps are also on tempting display. Get to know the producers in person: short transport routes and the personal touch always build trust. The high quality of the products, much of which is organic, is of particular importance.
