Treßdorfer Alm

Action-packed fun, tranquillity and nature, culinary highlights and expert knowledge: on Treßdorfer Alm pasture, all these attributes unite to provide a wonderful day out for all the family. The pasture has its own inn with rustic "Stuben", cosy rooms and a show dairy. Nearby Nassfeld Pass offers numerous round trails for hiking and walking, all with splendid views, via ferratas for climbing, a playground and summer sledding run for children and much more. As you can see, a trip to Treßdorfer Alm is never boring! Getting there is easy even for the little ones: from Nassfeld, a walking trail leads up to the pasture in just 25 minutes. It is also possible to take the car directly to the hut and start your hike in the surrounding mountains from there. Early summer is a particularly good time for a visit, from mid-June onwards, when the wulfenia flower is in bloom - a rare type of flower that is only found here. Towards the end of July, the Gailtaler Almkäse is cut, and the traditional "Kirchtag" festival is celebrated at the beginning of August. The show dairy is open daily during the summer months and offers visitors the chance of watching the dairy workers as they go about their business. Drop in at the farm shop afterwards or taste the home-made dairy products in the Almgasthaus! If you are hungry, opt for a cold platter that includes Gailtaler Almkäse, or a traditional Carinthian dish, prepared using fresh and regionally sourced produce.
