Desalpė

A lucky view from the hotel window. Not what you would expect in Interlaken!

After more than four months of grazing in alpine pastures, cows make their way down to the plain. Charmey's crowning event of the year, has acquired international renown. Those who love traditions and authenticity find that this celebration, every fourth Saturday in September, is a must. In a joyful clanging of bells, in the profusion of colours of their flowered headdresses, the herd returns to the plain.
