Overview
Mittenwald 2025
As every year in September, the traditional Almabtrieb was celebrated in Mittenwald in 2025. The festively decorated cattle herds returned from the summer pastures in the Karwendel Mountains, adorned with bells and artfully wound ribbon wreaths. The procession passed through the famous Lüftlmalerei old town to the festival meadow at Riedboden, where the Almfest with a brass band and delicacies marked the highlight.
The Alpine Year
The 2025 alpine year went well overall, allowing most animals to return festively decorated. Herdsmen and women from the Karwendel celebrated their return to the valley after about 100 days on the high pastures. Accompanying events such as the goat drive (early September) and the cattle drives in the neighboring towns of Krün and Wallgau made the Mittenwald autumn cattle drive season 2025 a multi-week traditional festival in the Alpenwelt Karwendel.
