Kaiserwinkl Egascht Festival

The first mowing or bringing in the first hay used to be called "Egascht Mahd". Based on this time and following an old tradition, the Egascht festival in Walchsee is always celebrated on Whit Sunday. The festival program is opened, annually with a big parade. Around the festival tent you will find, as every year, numerous exhibitors who often present long forgotten handicrafts.

A free bus transfer from Schwendt, Kössen and Rettenschöss to the Egascht Fest'l on Whitsunday, allows locals and guests a carefree visit to the festival and a safe journey home.
