Culinary Nights 2026 Autumn delights between Bad Kleinkirchheim, Lake Millstatt and the Nockberge Mountains

Carinthian wine and cheese

When strong cheese meets fine vines, 
the result is harmony on the palate. 
Whether delicately spicy goat's cheese or matured "Kas" from the alpine pastures – accompanied by a glass of 
Carinthian wine, matured in the sun. 

An evening full of contrasts – and yet 
in perfect harmony.

Sensual, honest, authentic – just like the land of 
indulgence itself.

From the deer to the lake

Game and fish – two faces of Carinthia in one menu.
Tender game from the Nockberge Mountains, freshly caught fish – accompanied by wild mushrooms, berries and root vegetables.

Nature to enjoy, refined by craftsmanship. A culinary treasure hunt between forest paths and lake shores.

25th and 26th September 2026

Carinthian grain, cabbage & turnips

The fields tell stories – 
of old varieties, reimagined.

Local grains, fresh herbs and Ruabn in all their diversity: creatively interpreted, traditionally rooted.

Carinthian culinary craftsmanship with depth and down-to-earthness. Evenings full of groundedness – and surprising lightness.

2nd and 3rd October 2026

Delicacies from the smokehouse & smokehouse

When smoke meets flavour, the result is intense: smoking as it used to be, served with a modern twist. Smoked meat, bacon, fish and vegetables – refined by fire, TIME and craftsmanship.

Menus for connoisseurs who love something special. Spicy, warm and full of memories – that's the taste of Carinthia.

Carinthia, a land of culinary delights

Over 500 producers, farmers, manufacturers and restaurateurs stand behind the Genussland Kärnten seal of quality. They combine traditional craftsmanship with regional origins and the highest product quality.

The Culinary Nights also consistently focus on this partnership: many of the ingredients come directly from Genussland farms in Carinthia – from alpine cheese and game from the Nockberge Mountains to regional wines.

This results in menu evenings that combine origin, craftsmanship and taste.
