Holiday in South Tyrol

A month ago there was the red nut still on the market and the last few are taken out of the camps or disappear into the mouths of our children.
But who is right now Holidays in South Tyrol , makes accurate in space Venosta has to worry about the delicious red-berry. The talk is of the strawberry.
Little white one, that the Venosta ( Genussregion pine-Martell ) next to the apples and the white marble - but that is another story - the strawberry as another export hit.

Located in the Val Venosta - South Tyrol in the west, lies the Martell. A side-valley, ideal for hiking in summer and cross country skiing and ski touring in winter. But the specialty of Martell over the summer months is the delicious strawberry. A small, round, red fruit, which not only children like to snack.

In early June, the strawberry season starts with a 3-day "Strawberry Festival", which is unique in South Tyrol. The strawberry season lasts until late summer. Due to the different growing heights from 700 to 1800 height meters, the Martell uses the first Genussregion pine-Martell all conditions to the strawberries ripen over the summer to be able to offer and. Hard to believe that the fact that Martell's largest strawberry-growing mountain region of Italy and even to the highest-in Europe.

And if this was not enough records are still on it I grab the Guinness Book record for the largest strawberry cake in the world.

A highlight of the Strawberry Festival, since the cake is cut by the reigning Queen of South Tyrol and strawberry served the many visitors to Verköstigen.

Strawberries are true power-nuts: the sweet berries are rich in vitamin C, minerals and trace elements, but low in calories. Perfect for many a connoisseur.

Can there be anything better on holiday than sitting in the middle of the Alps in a meadow with stunning views of the Ortler area and quality of fresh strawberries to snack or sweet-scented pancakes?

They look toward your next purchase but just once, maybe strawberries are from Martell - South Tyrol / Venosta even with them on the shelf, which calls them from eating one or the other from South Tyrol holiday memories to mind.

Have fun reminiscing!
