Likelihood of triggering
Triggering is likely, even from low additional loads, on many steep slopes (steeper than 30 degrees). In some cases, numerous large and often very large natural avalanches can be expected.
Cultural experiences in Warth-Schröcken.
Typically Walser: A heritage of tradition and community.
The villages of Warth and Schröcken, nestled in the picturesque Tannberg region, are renowned not only for their breathtaking natural landscapes but also for their rich Walser culture, deeply rooted in the history and identity of the area. Ancient monuments and stately Walser homes tell the story of a time when the Walser people settled here from the Valais canton in Switzerland, firmly establishing their traditions.
A key feature of this culture is the highly valued customs, reflected in the celebrations, festivals, and daily lives of the residents. Particularly noteworthy is the lively language "s’Walserdütsch," which serves not only as a means of communication but also as an expression of cultural identity.
The Walser culture continues to thrive, especially in local associations. In the traditional costume clubs, the Schröcken music club, and the "Wartherhorn" alphorn group, the camaraderie between young and old is fostered. Here, not only musical skills and artistic creation are passed on, but also a sense of community and the transmission of traditions from generation to generation.
Numerous exhibitions and book publications make the Walser culture tangible and vivid. These initiatives invite visitors to discover and experience the diversity and depth of this cultural heritage. Immersing yourself in these unique traditions allows you to not only sense the past but also feel the vibrant present of Walser culture up close.
