The Best Vegan-Friendly Places in Tirol

Normally, Tirolean cuisine is hearty Classics include Kaiserschmarren, bacon or cheese dumplings, with cooking centered around a lot of meat and dairy products. However, an increasing number of restaurants and hotels are demonstrating that it can be done differently by specialising in plant-based cuisine. We've looked around and discovered a selection of vegan favorite spots throughout the region.

Carrot balsamic vinegar, aubergine in chocolate cake, kale as a crispy snack: the aufatmen - Naturhotel in Leutasch thinks outside the box when it comes to cooking. The result is an exciting vegan and vegetarian flavour experience. The products for the unusual vegetable cuisine come from the region: fresh vegetables from the Leutasch Valley, aromatic herbs from the mountains and colourful leaves from the garden.
