21st Entlebuch alpine descent
Overzicht
Inleiding
Over 300 head of cattle, accompanied by herdsmen, dairymen and various folklore groups, make their way from their summering pastures to Schüpfheim.
The Entlebuch Alpabfahrt has grown into a true folk festival, one of the largest alpine descents in Switzerland and a kind of "little yodelling festival". In recent years, around 10,000 visitors have regularly greeted the Alpine families with their magnificently decorated animals as they return from the Alps to the valley. In the village of Schüpfheim on Saturday, one regional produce market stall follows the next, alternating with small snack bars. Yodel singing can be heard here, alphorns play there and brass band music can also be heard - it's simply cozy all round. Here, guests from near and far have the opportunity to experience folk traditions up close.
From 10.00 a.m. - Cheese and regional products market
From 11.00 a.m. - Folklore atmosphere
From 11.30 a.m. - Parade of alpine families
Thousands of visitors are looking forward to the 21st edition in September 2026.
