Tradition, mountain air & real village moments

As summer comes to an end, the alpine pastures get lively once more: during the cattle drive, cows, sheep and goats return from the high mountain meadows to the valley – festively decorated and accompanied by music, good vibes and plenty of tradition.

The decorated animals make their way through the villages while regional specialties, small markets and folk music create a relaxed, cheerful atmosphere. Traditional dress and down-to-earth alpine flavours make the cattle drive a uniquely South Tyrolean experience.

Whether you’re visiting with the family, looking for a great photo opportunity or simply curious about local traditions – the cattle drive lets you experience South Tyrol at its most authentic: warm, welcoming and full of alpine charm.
