Styria - A Feast for All the Senses
Trip highlights:
- Graz - Europe's most beautiful old town
- Volcano Land - ham paradise
- Piber - Lipizzaners of the Spanish Riding School
Culinary journey to the land of apples, wine and pumpkins
Styria enchants with landscapes straight out of the most beautiful picture book. From the high alpine country with its unique mountain pastures, across the gentle rolling hills of the "Orchard of Austria", to the steaming spa region and the South Styrian wine country. In Graz, the historic heritage of a magnificent old town meets modern architecture, and urban flair meets provincial joie de vivre.
Day 1: Switzerland - Styria
Journey to St. Ruprecht an der Raab.
Day 2: Graz
(Optional) Excursion to Graz, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Guided walking tour. From the Schlossberg you enjoy a magnificent view. Narrow lanes, romantic courtyards and every architectural style from Gothic through Renaissance and Baroque to modern come together in Europe's most beautiful old town. Free afternoon in Graz.
Day 3: Thermal Region - Volcano Land
(Optional) Scenic drive through the Styrian "Volcano Land" to the Vulcano Manufaktur, where you are taken into the world of ham and treated to tastings. At the foot of the legendary Riegersburg, which towers over a craggy rock, you visit Alois Gölles, whose family cultivates orchards and produces fine vinegars and noble spirits.
Day 4: South Styrian Wine Road
(Optional) Excursion to South Styria with its gentle hills covered in vines and mixed forest. Stop in Kitzeck, Austria's highest-situated wine village. Here you enjoy a superb view of Seggau Castle, once the residence of the Prince-Bishops of Seckau. At the Schneeberger family's Buschenschank you enjoy local farm produce.
Day 5: Lipizzaners - Schilcher
At Piber Castle, Lipizzaners are bred for the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. You can watch the horses and visit the stables. In Stainz you reach the Schilcher Wine Road, home of the rosé wine of the same name. Styria is famous for its large fields of orange pumpkins. You stop at an old pumpkin seed oil mill, where the secret of Styria's "black gold", pumpkin seed oil, is revealed. Onward journey to Schladming.
Day 6: Schladming - Switzerland
Return journey via Innsbruck and back to Switzerland.
