The Gatscher cheese dairy (Gatscherhof) was founded in 2005, with farmer Josef specializing in the production of cheese, yoghurt, and butter, as well as special cheeses such as juniper cheese, grey cheese and more. The cheese dairy has already won several awards. Electricity is produced sustainably. The heating is powered by waste products from the nearby located mountain pine oil distillery. In cooperation with the local tourism association, once a week there is a guided tour with tasting and production of fresh cheese. Participants can experience animal husbandry and the production of agricultural products in the farm and in the dairy.
