The culinary Volcano Country

A particularly lovely section of Styria extends from Riegersburg in the north to Straden in the south, and from Auersbach in the west to Fehring in the east. And it is especially attractive for pleasure-loving travellers: in this region they will be amply rewarded in their search for enjoyable culinary experiences. With regard to gourmet food and wine, this should come as no great surprise, but they will also find many off-beat delicacies ranging from the famous pumpkin-seed oil, which is of unrivalled quality here, to the hand-cured ham and other pork specialities, and to something that many travellers might not expect: perhaps the world’s best handmade chocolates.
