Alpaufzug auf die Guggialp (Lötschental-Wallis), aufgenommen am 16.06.2018. Die Eringer-Kuh ("Race d'Hérens") ist eine sehr spezielle, einzigartige Kuhrasse aus dem Kanton Wallis. Das spezielle an diesen Tieren ist, dass sie jeweils, bevor sie auf die Alp ziehen, die Hierarchie untereinander auskämpfen. Diese Hierarchie bleibt dann den ganzen Sommer über bestehen.
In diesem Jahr habe ich bereits die Ankunft der Kühe, sowie die ersten Hierarchie-Kämpfe gefilmt.
------ENGLISH-----
Once every year, before the summer starts, the cattles go up to the alps. I really like this time of the year, as this is a very traditional Swiss event.
Especially the cows that we have in the canton Wallis are from a very special race. It's called "Eringer" in German or "Vache d'hérens" in French. They are usually black- or dark brown colored and the are also quite big. And another special thing about them is that once they went up to the alps, the fight against each other to determine the "alp queen". This hirarchy stays until the summer ends. And important to know: It's not a human triggered fight, it's something natural for this kind of cattles.
I recorded this video on the 16.06.2018. And the place that you can see in the video is the Guggialp in the beautiful Lötschental valley.
Hope you like this Swiss tradition as I do :-)
