💨 Abstract

In the Swiss Alps' Bernese Oberland, spring marks the annual migration of Simmental cattle to mountain pastures. This journey, beginning in Adelboden, is a key part of producing Alpkäse, a premium cheese made from these cattle's milk. The region transforms from a winter ski haven to a summer hiking and cultural destination. Celebrations like the Züglete in Gstaad highlight the local agricultural heritage with flower-crowned cattle parading through the town.
