Their tribe is centuries old, now indigenous Canadians were on a tour of Carinthia. There was also a fun little dance in Althofen.

A tribe of indigenous Canadians came to visit Althofen on Tuesday. They are descended from the indigenous people of Canada. There are around 700,000 people living in North America today who consider themselves to be Indians; 617 tribes are officially recognized. Now 240 members, including 109 young people, have visited Carinthia.

After their visits to Minimundus on Lake Wörthersee and Hochosterwitz Castle, the rare guests from Canada were treated to a feast on the main square in Althofen.

"In addition to steaks, grilled specialties and fried chicken, we served typical Carinthian cheese noodles with potato salad. That was new to them and tasted delicious," says Gottfried Bachler. "The mint, which is included in the cheese noodles, was particularly popular," reveals the slow food specialist.

Dancing, soccer and culinary delights
"Our guests had a great time dancing with the rural youth from Kappel am Krappfeld afterwards," smiles organizer Gery Valtiner, who lived in Vancouver for 39 years. The Canadians are sporty: they also like to play soccer.

And Bachler is already preparing for the next highlight. "Between September 26 and 30, we'll be visiting the Terra Madre slow food fair in Turin, which attracts people from all over the world with 1.5 million visitors in one week. It will be a culinary festival. We are traveling with 30 people, the trip was fully booked in record time."
