The Almabtrieb in Auffach, Wildschönau brings Tyrolean tradition to life as decorated cows return from the alpine pastures through the village. Flower crowns, ribbons, greenery, and the sound of large cowbells create a colorful procession against the backdrop of the Kitzbühel Alps on a warm, sunny day.
Held in the Wildschönau Valley in Tyrol, this seasonal cattle drive marks the end of summer grazing and the safe return of the herds to the farms below. Farmers, helpers, local musicians, and visitors all play a part as the cattle arrive in separate groups, while the festival area near the Schatzbergbahn valley station fills with brass band music, regional food, craft stalls, and traditional clothing.
This is a scenic Austrian village event that blends mountain farming, rural culture, and community celebration. It is ideal for viewers interested in Austrian traditions, Tyrolean festivals, alpine life, decorated cows, and authentic countryside travel.
