Carinthia stands for authentic indulgence and a deeply rooted culinary culture in the Alpe-Adria region. Regional specialities, traditional production methods and international influences from Austria, Italy and Slovenia shape the local cuisine. In Slow Food Travel regions such as the Gailtal and Lesachtal, visitors can experience the production of cheese, bread or honey first-hand. Markets like the Benediktinermarkt in Klagenfurt, along with numerous culinary events and festivals, invite guests to discover the region’s diversity – from alpine products to dishes inspired by Mediterranean flavours.
