Food for fort

From elegant, award-winning restaurants to hidden wooden huts tucked away in the mountains, SalzburgerLand is certainly not in short supply of mouthwatering food in beautiful surroundings.

On one end of the spectrum, you have the traditional, hearty Austrian dishes that will fill your belly with warmth after a long day hiking. And on the other, superb tasting menus showcase the region's freshly caught fish or melt-in-your-mouth game.

After a hike in Hintersee, we discovered a wooden hut called Gruberalm among the snow. There, we tucked into traditional Kasnocken, digging our forks into cheesy dumplings straight from a huge sharing pan, all washed down with homemade elderberry juice.

We also ate until we couldn't eat any more in our very own intimate barbecue grill hut, rented for the evening in the garden of Hotel Jakob in quaint Fuschl.
