At markets and festivals, you will encounter traditional music, local specialties, and old crafts. A special experience is the alpine cattle drive in Salzburg: the animals return to the valley after summer on the mountain pastures.

Autumn is also one of the most delightful travel seasons from a culinary perspective. Cheese, bacon, homemade sausages, jams, and other regional products characterize the Farmers’ Autumn cuisine. In the Zell am See-Kaprun region, farmers’ markets, regional tastings, and farm specialties are part of the offerings during this time.
