Neurath is located in the municipality of Kitzeck im Sausal. Things to discover range from local wines and a traditional regional snack to cheese-making and tastings. There are also various trails: the Klapotetz Loop is a mountain bike tour through the South Styrian wine landscape, while the Sausaler Circular Hiking Trail K2 climbs uphill towards Neurath. This gives you several clear points to consider when planning your trip. You can focus on culinary offerings, explore how cheese is made, or choose an activity based on the type of travel and landscape. Kitzeck Parish also adds a local connection to the church.
Culinary Experiences in Neurath
Gutjahr Winery and Buschenschank are located in Neurath. The Buschenschank serves its own wines and a traditional, hearty regional snack. Fischer Cheese Dairy is also located in Neurath and offers a different culinary focus. This excursion destination specialises in cheese-making and tastings. During the excursion, visitors experience the entire process, from collecting the milk through processing to maturation. So the focus is not just on the finished product: the process of making it is part of the experience too. This sequence makes the visit interesting for guests who want to learn how cheese is made as well as taste it. The offerings are clearly distinct: Gutjahr focuses on wine and a regional snack, while Fischer focuses on cheese and how it is made.
Mountain Biking and Hiking
The Klapotetz Loop passes through Neurath and is a mountain bike tour through the South Styrian wine landscape. Fantastic views and culinary highlights along the route combine cycling with scenery and good food. The Sausaler Circular Hiking Trail K2 has a different focus: it climbs uphill towards Neurath. This difference is useful when choosing between them. The Klapotetz Loop passes through the village, while the K2 climbs towards it. The modes of travel also differ: mountain biking on the Klapotetz Loop, hiking on the K2. When choosing between the two, you can consider both the type of activity you prefer and the route’s exact connection to the village.
A Local Connection to the Church
Kitzeck Parish has four mass chapels, including Neurath. This adds a local connection to the church alongside the culinary offerings and routes. For travellers who also want to consider a cultural aspect, this connection places Neurath within the parish of Kitzeck. The four mass chapels give this connection a concrete setting; Neurath is one of them.
The main points to consider when planning your trip are easy to distinguish: Gutjahr and Fischer offer different culinary experiences, while the routes differ in their mode of travel and connection to the village. Kitzeck Parish adds a cultural aspect to this selection. You can consider which theme matters most for your stay.
Practical Planning
Check the date of the cheese dairy excursion before your trip. Conditions on the Sausaler Circular Hiking Trail K2 can vary, so it is a good idea to check them before setting out. Preparation depends on the activity: check the date for a visit to Fischer and the trail conditions for the hike.
