Speyside: Cooperage

Scotlands pride: The Malt Whisky Trail

Glenlivet, Glengrant or Glenfiddich: Speyside is famous for its fine round whisky - more than half of all Scottish distilleries are located in the region. Eight of them can be visited - on the Malt Whisky Trail. 
On the route, distilleries explain what the secret of a good whisky is and let guests taste the one or other glass. There is also a stop at a traditional cottage industry, where you can watch the coopers making casks. A walk along the Spey on the well-signposted trail of the same name will keep your mind clear.

Shaping Winds: The Ruta del Vino de Terra Alta

Terra Alta is the name of a high plateau in southern Catalonia. Hot summers, frosty winters and two winds characterise the region: the dry north wind Cierzo and the cooling Garbí from the Mediterranean. Ideal conditions for growing white wine. No wonder, then, that the DO Terra Alta is especially known for its melting Garnacha Blanca wines. Travellers can get to know these and many other good wines on the region's wine route.
21 wineries open their cellars on the route and invite you to taste them. Especially recommended: the wine cathedral of El Pinell de Brai - an art nouveau jewel from 1922.

Six-pack: The Allgäu Cheese Road

Every summer, around 2500 cows drive the alpine herdsmen to the pastures of the western Allgäu, where they feed exclusively on herbs and grasses. Annually around 1500 tons of hay-milk cheese are produced from their milk, such as the creamy Romandur or the strong Alp Cheese.
A total of six regional cheeses can be tasted on the Allgäu Cheese Road: when visiting one of the many alpine dairies, which are also happy to provide an insight into the production of their specialities. The approximately 150-kilometre-long route also leads through a charming natural landscape.
