Hornkirchtag
Experience one of the finest traditional days on the Rittner Horn, which this year highlights the 5th South Tyrolean Weisenbläser Gathering (traditional brass bands). Following a solemn mountain mass at 11:00 AM at the Unterhorn wayside shrine, the alpine pastures transform into a unique open-air concert venue. Stroll from hut to hut, enjoy the sounds of traditional Tanzlmusig (folk music), and experience authentic South Tyrolean hospitality at the local alpine inns.
