Transhumance at Santa Gertrude (Val d'Ultimo). The cows return from the alpine pastures (2000 metres) where they were during the last summer months. The farmers come to hold their own cows and take them in the stable. Some farmers are here with a track, other with the entire family, wife and children, and all help each other. I was surprised to see so many visitors. It was really fine to here the sound of the big bells of the cows.
