Vineyards and farmhouses along the Raab, in the volcanic hills of southeastern Styria.

Wine Tasting

Mitterdorf an der Raab sits in the Vulkanland Steiermark, the volcanic hill country of southeastern Styria, where the Raab river cuts a gentle path through vineyards and farmland. The village is small, its character shaped by the vines on the surrounding slopes. Local growers tend these hillsides for wines the wider region is known for, and several cellars open for tastings through the season. Paths follow the riverbank and climb into the farmland beyond. Markets in the area sell produce from local farms. The village works well as a base for visiting the vineyards and small farms scattered across the surrounding hills; the river and its paths offer a quieter route below the slopes.
