Alpine festival - Behind the scenes "Alpabzug" alpine procession

It is a kind of alpine festival in Switzerland when the cows go down into the valleys after the alpine season. The so-called Alpabzug takes place every year in September and today I will show you what it looks like behind the scenes.

The Rouseniaui Valley looks like a very peaceful place. I love cheese. I have probably eaten cheese made in Switzerland. We must thank the Swiss farmers for their hard work and the good cheese. The cow parade is hearwarming. Cow wash waiting for the cow wash yeah🎶😊🍀

Never imagined the cows being pressure washed - in this day and age.

[@bengtwahlstedt1021]

Nice interesting video 😊 !

[@timmccabe4654]

Thank you so much, Sylvia! It was wonderful to see the preparation behind an Alpabzug. Pressure washing cows! Who knew? 😊 The one herd with the flowers and the Swiss flags was especially great. We went to see the descent of a dozen or so herds to Urnasch, Appenzell (Ausserrhoden) in Sept of last year. The town has a little festival then with a market and boys choirs singing traditional Apoenzeller music. It was very enjoyable. What is the translation of Gschwantenmad?

[@SylviaMichelPhotography]

Oh I don't know - must be something in deepest Bernese Oberland language :)
