South Tyrol places a great emphasis on tradition

Discover customs and culture

There are many features to discover in the sunny paradise of Terenten in Puster Valley. There is something exciting for everyone here, whether it be in terms of culture or the open air. There is also lots for children to discover!

Numerous festivals and events throughout the whole year make South Tyrol a truly vibrant place. This includes fairs, processions and cuisine.

Traditional customs are brought back to life, and rural cuisine dishes rediscovered. So there are traditional dishes like pressed dumplings and Schlutzkrapfen [Tyrolean ravioli] in almost all South Tyrolean cuisine. On the other hand gourmet chefs are adopting original recipes and transforming once simple dishes into culinary delights.

One of these cultural events, the “Terner Schmelzpfandl”, commemorates the tradition of the sunny village of Terenten as the granary of Puster Valley. So you can experience the important events in the rural calendar all year round with: sowing in spring, Mühlenfest and harvest in Summer and Almabetrieb [mountain-meadow homecoming] as a special highlight in October.
In October guest houses and farms in Terenten host a gastronomic week “Terner Bauernkuchl”. During this culinary week traditional, somewhat forgotten dishes, are discovered once again and served to the guests.
