Alpchäsmarkt with cow racing
Proven tradition in a magnificent Alpine setting.
At the traditional Alpchäsmarkt, the alpine dairies of Flumserberg offer their cheeses for tasting and sale at the beautifully decorated stalls. In the traditional cheese dairy, visitors can experience the traditional craft of cheesemaking first hand. The traditional cheese maker shows how cheese was made in Heidi's day and is also available to answer questions. A very special spectacle is the cow race, unique in Switzerland, in which only female jockeys compete in two rounds for the crown of the Cow Grand Prix. "Achtung, fertig, Muuh" (Ready, steady, moo!) Interested parties can see for themselves the qualities of the racing cows before the starting signal and place their bets on their favorite at the betting office. Younger guests can compete in the mini cow race on bouncy cows and win small prizes.
