At the end of September 2008
At the end of September more than 200 animals return from the mountain pastures of Marebbe/Enneberg back down to the valley to their home farms. The animals are adorned with bells, wreaths and fresh flowers and everybody in the village gathers to celebrate and watch the return of the cattle. The dairymaids hand out sweet pastries called “Canifli” and in the village centre you can enjoy food and drinks as well as folk music to dance to.
The exact date of this event depends on the weather conditions and since it is an authentic occasion of rural life it cannot be planned in advance.
