"Désalpe" is the best-known of all traditional mountain festivities. After more than four months of grazing in alpine pastures, cows make their way down to the plain.
On this occasion at the beginning of October thundering bells will be hanging from cows' necks and brightly couloured flowers decorate their heads.

Programme from 7am: parade, traditional music and selling of local products among other things.
