Where the Cows Have "Sponsors"

In the alpine pasture, besides the Gailtal Alpine Cheese g.U., you can expect other cheese delicacies from the alpine dairy. Whether it's the Gailtal Almschotten, creamy yogurt, white mold cheese from the best alpine milk, or a flavorful semi-hard cheese, let these hand-crafted products melt on your palate.

After a hearty alpine snack, there is an opportunity to hike to the nearby local mountains, Hochwipfel or Schulterkofel. For those who wish to undertake a day tour in our area, the cheese circular hiking trail is recommended. A tip for long-distance hikers: our alpine pasture is located directly on the Karnischer Höhenweg 403.

Anyone can take on a sponsorship for a cow at the beautiful Klein Kordin Alm for a season. It costs a small fee but creates closeness to the alpine pasture and its products. Each sponsor receives a cheese package with Gailtal Alpine Cheese g.U. at the end of the season, and here a true cheese master, Herbert Wassertheurer, is at work.

The Klein Kordin Alm can be reached via Stranig and further through the Straniger Alm.

On a well-maintained gravel road, you will reach the Klein Kordin Alm, passing the Straniger Alm. Due to its gentle incline towards the Klein Kordin Alm, it is also possible to hike the path with small children.

Kleinkordin Alm pasture is located along the cheese-themed circular route in the market town of Kirchbach. The circular trail is a comfortable day's walk across the border between Carinthia and Italy, leading from pasture to pasture. Its starting point is Straniger Alm pasture, from where it is a 3km walk to Kleinkordin Alm pasture.
Products from the pasture: Gailtaler Almkäse (Protected Designation of Origin), "Schotten" cheese, butter
