The most amazing Alpine Feast - DESALPE in Charmey on September 26th Descent from the mountains pastures

This is a not to miss feast , my favorite one in the Alps, it's when cows come back from mountains to the valley, after having staid more than 4 months in mountains pastures.
The most famous feast takes place in Charmey a very nice village in the Gruyere Region.

Check schedule and plan logistics carefully, there will be many thousands people there , so you might want to consider to go by train.
Charmey is also hosting  very nice Thermal Baths , see my previosu post so you can also plan a refreshing bath before going back.
