Dolomites Region Alta Badia

One thing is certain: in the Ladin valleys, no hungry stomach is left wanting! In the kitchens in the Dolomite regions Gröden, Alta Badia and Kronplatz , bread is still baking, smelling and steaming just like in grandma's day. You will notice it straight away: After a long walk or a tough bike ride, the soup made from vegetables, barley and meat tastes particularly good! But there are many other Ladin delicacies waiting for you: "Bales" (dumplings), "Gnoch" (potato dumplings) or "Turtres" ("Tirtlan",  pastry sheets filled with spinach and curd cheese and deep-fried), "Grestl" (Gröstl, pan-fried dish with boiled potatoes and beef cut into pieces) or "Fortaies" (baked yeast dough). The "Jufa", a milk pudding dish, is not only an exciting experience in terms of flavour, as it is traditionally eaten directly from the pot with a spoon. Meal time!

With a bit of luck, you can take a stroll through the village and watch the craftsmen and women  at work  making hand-woven textiles or artistic wooden sculptures. Making things yourself has a long tradition in South Tyrol, and you can enjoy handcrafted objects of daily use and art. 

Might it be a piece of spicy alpine cheese ? A spicy salami from the farm's own meat? In the Dolomites Region Alta Badia, as in the rest of South Tyrol, you will find a large selection of local, high-quality foods. Many products are available from local shops or directly the farm, where you can sample the delicacies and get to know the producers. This not only gives you unique flavours, but   also exciting insider knowledge about cultivation and processing.
