We would like to attend an Alpine Festival (or just witness the event) or the cows returning from the hills/mountains. Wondering if anyone has suggestions on which ones are particulary nice or one that's "Not to miss"?

I've been using the Swiss Tourism site to try to find events and dates are there
any others places to find these? Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

I went to the one in Kerns, Switzerland in 2011. It was held on Oct 1 that year. A lot of fun!

A few years ago we spent time in Germany traveling and went to several viehscheid celebrations. It was a blast. Hopefully this website will help you find info you’re seeking, it shows almatriebs in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, just scroll down the page.

I think it might be descent.

I'm still wondering about the festivals for indecent cows.

Or "moo-ving" the cows? ;-)
