Altenauer Weidefest

Sunday 29.09.2024 - Kleine-Oker-Park Altenau

Every year in autumn, Altenau traditionally celebrates the Weidefest. The Harz mountain cattle are honoured. Look forward to an afternoon full of livestock and tradition, starting with a hearty brass band concert by the Janitscharen Kapelle. Afterwards, the herd marches from the Kunstberg to the Kleine-Oker Park.

Admission is free! Coffee and cake will be provided. The proceeds of the Weidefest go towards the further beautification of Altenau.

Yodelling, whip concert and cattle drive

There's a lot going on in the Kleine-Oker-Park on this day at the Weidefest in Altenau. Enjoy coffee and cake while fervent yodelling and whips are played. Be there when the new cowherd is appointed and watch as the herd is driven from Kleine-Oker-Park back to the Kunstberg!
