Delightful moments and tasty highlights

Amongst the culinary experiences and highlights of the local gastronomy, we find speciality weeks and gourmet days all through the year: The “Völser Kuchlkastl” in Völs am Schlern in October is one of the longest-standing gastronomy weeks in the Dolomite region, and offers traditional dishes prepared with class. The open-air speciality events are also extremely popular, and include the “Berglertafel” mountaineers’ dinner with a view of the Rosengarten in Tiers am Rosengarten.

Given the flourishing development of the scheme over the past two years, it has now been expanded to include the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm which, with its diversity of agricultural products and creative gastronomy, holds immense potential to create added value for locals and visitors.
