With the Seefeld Strudel Festival on Sunday, 07th of July, a special culinary traditional festival has been established on the sunny plateau. The chefs and pastry makers in the region are already working hard to impress gourmets with their level of skills. There is something for everyone’s taste: from the potato chanterelle strudel to a vegan variation with organic pulled jackfruit, a “Blunzenstrudel” with apple chutney to seductively sweet variations such as semolina cherry strudel or Sacher strudel.
