Alpine cattle removals Aeschiried will not take place in 2024!

Due to the different dates of the cattle move, the cattle removal will not take place in 2024!

In September, the long alpine summer comes to an end and the alpine farmers return to the valley individually with their animals. Decorating the cows has a long tradition and is an expression of the fact that the alpine summering has gone well and without incident. Unfortunately, this tradition is not celebrated and cannot be seen with the decorated cows and sheep returning to the valley.

When
The Aeschiried cattle drive will NOT take place in September 2024! 

There will be no market or festival catering. The reception of the animals will therefore not take place.

Important information for other years

Where
At the parking lot in Aeschiried, the animals will be welcomed by the alpine farms Aeschiried/Suldtal.
For visitors there will be market stalls as well as a small festival restaurant in Aeschiried.

The bus to Suldtal leaves Aeschiried at 09.54 and 10.54 o'clock as scheduled. Due to oncoming animals, there may be delays on the 11.54 bus.

Reservations for the Suldtal bus are not possible. The rule is "First Come, First Served".

All animals will pass the parking lot in Aeschiried. Therefore a journey to the Suldtal is not mandatory.
