In the realm of delights

Carinthia is a realm of delights. At the latest, one realizes it while wandering through Carinthia’s twelve delightful regions and sampling their 13 delicious regional products. The clean lakes and rivers, the pleasant, well-cared-for landscape, an unspoilt environment and hard-working farmers and manufacturers produce valuable foodstuffs. Each region has a leading product:the tender lamb from the region around Mount Grossglockner, the tangy Lavanttal Valley apple wine from the paradise of Carinthia, the spicy Jauntal Valley salami (to which each landlord adds his own original recipe), Gailtal Valley bacon, which melts on the tongue, and the seductive sweetness of Carnica Honey from the Rosental Valley are just a few examples of suchincomparable regional delights. You can buy them straight from the farm or the shop, sample them in restaurants and rural wine taverns, and enjoy them on a farm holiday. The Verein Kärntner Agrarmarketing (Carinthian agrarianmarketing association) has brought together the high-quality products which make the region so unique, a place to experience with all the senses, under the umbrella label “Carinthia, Realm of Delights”.
