What is special about ALMO - where can I try it?

According to surveys, ALMO meat from our Alpine oxen is the most popular beef in Austria, which is precisely why ALMO meat is at the heart of the Almenland Nature Park region's flagship product.

It stands for a well-tended alpine landscape and serves as a livelihood for countless farmers in the region. Around 3,000 ALMO Alpine cattle are allowed to spend their summer on the Alpine pasture every year and feed on a wide variety of lush grasses and aromatic herbs.

The delicious meat is available at the Pierer butcher's shop in Passail and at BILLA plus throughout Austria.
