Life just tastes better on the mountain

From breakfast with a view over the Leoganger Steinberge mountains and lunch with live music through to the sundowner with tasty cocktails, the ski huts of the Skicircus offer the chance to truly indulge. The cuisine is as rich in contrasts as the region itself – ranging from the genuine Pinzgau pasta dish “Kasnocken” to sushi and burgers.

Bladl, the delicious Pinzgau speciality

If there were ever a characteristic Pinzgau meal, then it is surely the “Bladl” – dumplings made from rye flour that are fried and served with a potato and bacon filling, with sauerkraut or as a sweet dish with lingonberries (known locally as “Granggn”). There are still a number of traditional Pinzgau inns in which you can sample this speciality.
