On Saturday 6 April and with wonderfully mild spring weather, the 9th Saanen regional cattle show (Rinderexpo Saanenland) took place on the Wispileparkplatz in Gstaad. Alenia by Tamara Perreten from Feutersoey was the supreme champion and Turbach won the local cup.
The 125 most beautiful cows were on display at the 32nd annual Bernese Elite Show on May 11th. The competition consisted of 14 categories of the three races—Simmental, Swiss Fleckvieh, and Red Holstein/Holstein.
Spring has sprung, and the wrestling “crown season” has begun. After many spring events, the first of the celebrated matches which bestow crowns on the winners took place May 5 and 6.
Gstaad comes in second behind St. Moritz in the market rankings for holiday apartments in the Swiss Alpine region. However, the impression is that the local region will soon take the lead. By contrast, second-rate locations are experiencing a price slump.
