Nature, culinary and culture

cultural picnics outdoors

Choosing between a picnic in the green and a fancy cultural program? You don't have to. The Green Heart of Austria offers a variety of refreshing cultural picnics ideally combining nature and culture.

Styria is very famous for its delicious regional products - those can not only be tasted in traditional inns or vine taverns, they can be enjoyed in the nature as well - with a fully packed picnic basket. One can strive through breathtaking landscapes and find a comfortable picnic spot in the middle of historical settings or on endless green pastures. A picnic excursion can become even more colorful, when it takes place in a cultural setting or is accompanied by exhibition visits or extraordinary music and art performances.

Now comes the challenge: the choice of a location :-) An impressive garden next to one of the historical castles such as for example Schloss Eggenberg in the UNESCO world heritage city of Graz or in the middle of a vineyard? The choice is yours. Pack the picnic basket (or have it packed)  - ready - set - go!
