Herb pastures in Salzburg’s Pinzgau region

The Herbal Alpine Huts around the Hochkönig region invite you to discover the fascinating world of Alpine herbs with all your senses. Guided herb walks, workshops and conversations with trained herbal experts offer insights into the plants growing along the mountain trails and their traditional use in regional cuisine and natural remedies.

Each participating alpine hut combines regional traditions, local knowledge and authentic craftsmanship. A special highlight is the selection of herb-inspired dishes created by award-winning chef Vitus Winkler, showcasing seasonal ingredients and the unique flavours of the region.

Families can also enjoy a memorable day in the mountains. Special herb walks for children encourage young explorers to discover nature through play. Along the way, they can collect wooden memory stones featuring local wildlife and receive a beautifully illustrated storybook as a keepsake of their adventure.
