Murauer beer \u2013 part of the city's identity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Murau wordt al sinds 1495 bier gebrouwen. De biercultuur hoort zo sterk bij de stad dat een bezoek aan de Brauerei der Sinne<\/a> een leuke aanvulling is op een middag in Murau. In veel restaurants in de omgeving wordt Murauer bier vers van de tap geschonken.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Typical flavors of the region include Murtaler Steirerk\u00e4se, local game and fish, Steirisches Wurzelfleisch, Zirbitz lamb, honey, and Zirbenschnaps. At the mountain huts, you will also find classics such as Brettljause, Kaiserschmarren, Apfelstrudel, and other homemade flour dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A culinary day from Kreischberg<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Combine food and drink with an activity: coffee and sandwiches before departure at Stocklauser, lunch on the mountain at the Kreischbergwirt or Rieglerh\u00fctte, and in the evening head to Murau for dinner and a glass of local beer. This way, even a day without a major excursion naturally becomes a mini culinary tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Practical tips for food & drink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Reserve for dinner<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Reservations are advisable, especially during the high season and on weekends. Furthermore, at smaller inns, kitchen hours may be more limited than the general opening hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note the rest period and season opening.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In Austria, many restaurants have one or two fixed closing days per week. Additionally, mountain huts and restaurants on the Kreischberg may be dependent on gondola operation, the season, and the weather. Therefore, always check the current opening hours on the day itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With children<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ottl's Wirtshaus, Schafferwirt, Kreischbergwirt, and Rieglerh\u00fctte are attractive choices for families because they offer play areas or other amenities for children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our tip for a first evening<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Blijf de eerste avond dicht bij het appartement en kies een restaurant in St. Georgen of St. Lorenzen. Plan voor een volgende avond Murau<\/a>: wandel eerst door het historische centrum en sluit af bij het Brauhaus, Lercher\u2019s Wirtshaus of een van de restaurants rond het Hauptplatz.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
