Study Notes
The Dairy Farmers of Tyrol are trekking home with their cattle after a summer in Alpine pastures. The alma trip, a festive cattle drive, is the highlight of the year in the Alps. Everything, including the cows and people, must be spotless for the big day. The cows are adorned with Christian symbols and an individual festive headpiece is designed for each of the 80 animals. The 14-kilometer route is a blast for the young herders who keep trekking without taking a break until they reach the town. The eventful day ends in the peace and quiet of the barn. The tradition of the cattle drive into the valley is still an okay thing to do.
