Culinary nights at Seeglück Hotel Forelle
Two enjoyable evenings in our house
At the Seeglück Hotel Forelle, autumn becomes the setting for special culinary experiences. As evening slowly descends over the lake and the kitchen takes centre stage, moments of pure indulgence begin. As part of our Culinary Nights, we invite you to two themed evenings that showcase the region’s diversity in a refined and surprising way.
Seasonal ingredients, culinary craftsmanship and a flair for the essentials take centre stage – accompanied by the relaxed atmosphere by the water.
Look forward to delightful evenings that will stay with you for a long time to come.
From the Deer to the Lake - 26.09.2026
Two worlds, one menu: game from the Carinthian Nockberge mountains meets freshly caught fish from clear waters. Finely balanced with mushrooms, berries and aromatic root vegetables, the dishes reflect the region’s diversity.
An evening that truly brings the joy of the lake to your plate – tranquil, authentic and with a keen sense of tradition.
Carinthian grain, greens and root vegetables - 03.10.2026
The treasures of the fields take centre stage: heirloom grains, fresh greens and a variety of root vegetables.
Traditional ingredients, reinterpreted and executed with delicate lightness.
A menu that combines down-to-earthness and creativity – rooted in Carinthia, with a modern twist and cooked with great attention to detail.
Book in good time - places are limited!
These evenings are more than just an enjoyable menu - they are a sensual excursion into the culinary soul of Carinthia.
