Overview

Yearly, in the end of September, it holds a festival that celebrates the time when the cows come down from the alps (where they stay during the warm seasons) to the stables in the city where they stay during the winter.

Economy

Its main economic activities are tourism and dairy farming.

In 2005 a cable-car that connects the city with the famous skiing region of Kitzbuehel was built, this brought a boost to real-estate in the municipality.
