Lower Austria
To the pear tree blossom in the Mostviertel
A sea of white blossoms now stretches through the gently undulating landscape of the idyllic Moststraße in spring. The pear tree blossom is celebrated again this year with numerous events.
This year you can enjoy the magical natural spectacle of the pear tree blossom, which bathes the Mostviertel in Lower Austria in a white dress of color, particularly early. The first buds have already opened around Easter. Cider baron Toni Distelberger is also certain that this year is "the earliest blossom in living memory". Along the 200 kilometers
The 300,000 or so pear trees along the 200-kilometre-long cider route are not only setting fragrant accents with their lush sea of blossoms. It's still a while before the fruit is harvested and turned into traditional cider, but the cider taverns, inns, cider farmers and businesses invite you to raise a glass to pears with a series of culinary festivals, tastings and blossom hikes.
INFO
Everything you need to know about the cider spring, an overview of events and the Mostviertel region can be found at www.mostviertel.at
The Day of Cider on April 21, 2024 is the highlight. Even after full bloom, the cider spring still has a lot to offer until the end of June.
After all, there is still a bottle or two stored in the deep cellars of the old square farmhouses. On a hop-on hop-off tour on Cider Day, April 21, you can also take a leisurely ride on a retro bus through the pear tree blossom and the countryside. And from cider to cider.
In the largest contiguous orchard area in Europe, the cider pear has been taking root in the soil for centuries. Cider, which in the Mostviertel means fermented fruit wine, was once considered a simple drink - the fact that this has changed is mainly due to the creativity and quality awareness of the cider barons. They see themselves as the guardians of the cider pear, the trees that require extensive care and the culture surrounding the fermented pear cider.
