A journey of relaxation woven with wine and nature

South Styria, located in southern Austria, is a picturesque wine-producing region known for its lush vineyards, the scenic South Styrian Wine Road (Südsteirische Weinstraße), the historic Vogau Castle, and rolling hills perfect for hiking. Just an hour's drive from Graz, it is best explored by rental car. Visitors can enjoy local specialties such as the partially fermented wine "Sturm," pumpkin seed oil, and traditional dishes. The best times to visit are spring (April to June), when flowers are in full bloom, and autumn (September to October), during the wine harvest season.
