Customs & Traditions in Summer

In the Salzkammergut region, the summer solstice is traditionally celebrated with a bonfire. This is a popular opportunity to sit together with other people from the community.

As summer fades and autumn approaches, it's time for the traditional cattle drive down from the mountain pastures throughout the Salzkammergut region. St. Wolfgang is particularly famous for its festive cattle drive, which attracts countless spectators every year. The subsequent alpine festival offers the opportunity to enjoy culinary and musical specialties.
