Viehscheid cattle drive: When the herds of cattle return from the alpine pastures to the valley in late summer, this alpine drive - called the "Viehscheid" in the Allgäu - is traditionally celebrated in style with impressive traditional costumes, cattle decorated with flowers and music. You can see it in Obermaiselstein, Ofterschwang and Balderschwang. Viescheid dates listed on Hoernerdoerfer.de
Klausentreiben: At the beginning of December, eerie figures parade through the Allgäu region to drive away evil winter spirits. At the "Bärbeletreiben" on December 4 and "Klausentreiben" on December 6, groups of young men disguised in cow costumes continue this tradition in Fischen im Allgäu.
