When the mountain summer comes to an end and the first leaves turn color, one of the most beautiful traditions of the year begins in Tyrol: the cattle drives. The decorated cows return to the valley from the lush Alpine pastures in a festive setting - an impressive spectacle that is deeply rooted in Tyrolean culture.
Decorating the cows is a sign of an accident-free alpine summer. The cattle proudly present themselves with elaborate flower crowns and bells, while the two best dairy cows and the leading animals are awarded the traditional "Stafel".
