General Information

Rattendorfer Alm looks back to a long and important history. During WWI, for example, it played a major role as a supply centre.

Nowadays Rattendorfer Alm is well known for its picturesque location and a popular destination for hikers of all ages. It offers a nearby cheese hiking circuit, mountain bike tracks and climbing routes on the surrounding mountain peaks.

Rattendorfer Alm is also a member of the organisation "Gailtaler Almkäse e.U.". Over 100 cows spend their summer vacation on the surrounding alpine pastures, indulging in the nutrient rich alpine grass and producing high-quality milk. This milk is then used to make premium cheese and other milk products. Come and try for yourself!
