Description

Traditions and customs are an important part of South Tyrolean identity and are closely connected with the mountain landscape, farming life, faith and village communities. Along the Tirolersteig, information panels tell about traditional customs, religious festivals and processions, as well as rural life in the past. Music bands, Schützen, traditional costume groups and local associations also continue to shape cultural life and help pass traditions and values on to future generations.
