Schafscheid Bettmeralp

20. – 21.09.2024
After summering in the Alps, the sheep are taken to the sheepfold on Bettmeralp. There, the sheep are divided up among their respective owners. These then take the animals back to their "winter residences". The Schafscheid is highly valued as a meeting place. Valais conviviality and culinary delights are a must.
