Stepping ever closer to your culinary nirvana

Indulge yourself on tasty samples of Alps-Adriatic cuisine served by three quaint mountain huts along a leisurely walk during the “Kostale hike”. The journey starts at the bottom cable car station that will take you to the start of the hike, where you can enjoy breathtaking scenery of the Gerlitzen mountain range. The hike to the first Alpine hut, called Pöllinger Hütte, takes about 30 minutes, which is when you can enjoy the traditional “Kärnter Kasnudle”, which will boost your power and energy levels for the next 45 to 60 minutes hike to the Almseehütte. Here you will be able to try the juicy Alm Steaks before setting off for the next alpine hut, called Gipfelhaus, which is where different Strudle specialities are on offer. The Gelitzen experience is then completed by taking the chair lift back to the middle station, or if you fancy a bit more hiking you can also walk down yourself.
