ERZBERG-LEOBEN: the realm of culinary delights in Styria

Around the Erzberg, also known as the “Styrian Bread Loaf”, there is a large number of producers, gourmet stores, craft and gourmet businesses that have set themselves a goal of increasing awareness and the importance of food and crafts coming from the region. Together they form the Genussreich ERZBERG-LEOBEN. They not only treat gourmets to their products, but have also opened their doors to guests who would like to take a look behind the scenes.

Recipes from creative cooking and baking courses at Eberhard or Genussdude guarantee lasting enjoyment as soon as you return to your own four walls.

About vegetable patches and herbal plants

Wild herbs are true powerhouses of nature and yet are often overlooked in our diet. In the ERZBERG-LEOBEN region, Genussreich partners turn nature into an adventure and the meadow into a treasure chest.
At the herb workshops run by Mike & The Muse or Maria, fragrant meadows lead to wild treasures that are processed into vital delicacies and healing natural remedies.

Meanwhile, in the gardens of the GenussGärtner - from the Tripstrü forest garden to the St. Michael kindergarten - the pure experience of nature grows and thrives: planting, snacking and harvesting together are focused here.
