Harvest Festival in Salzburg
Traditional festivities in Zell am See-Kaprun
Our region Zell am See-Kaprun around the Hotel Kaprunerhof in Salzburger Land is rich in customs and traditions. Especially popular is the annual Bauernherbst. During the harvest season, various events are celebrated together with music, dancing, eating, and laughing. Markets featuring traditional crafts and homemade regional delicacies delight the eyes and taste buds. Traditions such as costume dances, mountain church services, or the regional sport of Ranggeln keep the customs alive. Even here in Zell am See-Kaprun, the Bauernherbst season takes place once a year!

The celebrations begin with opening speeches, a festive parade, and a festival tent featuring music, dance, and culinary delights. Following that, the Farmers' Autumn markets and events start throughout the Salzburger Land.

During the farmers' autumn season, we also like to visit the Jausenstation Unteraigen: It is known for its excellent schnapps. Distiller Toni is happy to show how schnapps is made. Tastings are available upon request.
