Alpine Herb Garden

In our herb gardens - the mountain herb garden in St. Magdalena at 1400 metres above sea level and the show herb garden in St. Valentin - old and new knowledge about the recognition and use of wild aromatic and medicinal herbs is brought back to life. Around 150 different, mainly native plant species thrive in our herb garden.

In guided tours, the herb specialist teaches interested visitors the identification of wild herbs and their use in cooking and folk medicine.

Our herbs are only fertilised and treated organically; due to the altitude, the plants develop high-quality secondary ingredients.

The herbs are air-dried on wooden shelves, placed in breathable sacks and only cut, mixed and bottled when needed. The blossoms are collected individually and gently dried so that the magnificent colours are preserved. Everything is handmade!
