In June, the Tyrolean panoramic mountain Hohe Salve and its smaller sibling, Kleine Salve, will be transformed into a hotspot for lovers of traditional costumes! Small and big summiteers can look forward to girls and boys in dirndls and lederhosen as far as the eye can see, as well as culinary highlights and exciting performances by traditional associations such as the “Goasslschnoizer Hopfgarten”, “Schuachplattler” groups and wind players. The highlight of this day will be a fashion show with the most beautiful traditional costumes from “Trachtenbekleidung Niederkofler” in the morning and in the afternoon at the summit of the Hohe Salve. The Hohe Salve cable car in Hopfgarten and the Salvistabahn in Itter will take you comfortably closer to heaven at unbeatable prices. On Dirndl and Lederhosen Day you get your day ticket for the Salvenbahn and Salvistabahn for half price! So, let's go up to the Kleine Salve and Hohe Salve and enjoy the mountain experience..
