66th Cow’s Ball
The biggest holiday in Bohinj!
Cows’ ball in Bohinj is the oldest event, which was mainly a holiday for the locals, who rejoiced at the end of the tourist and grazing season, all the way until the 1950s.
Tourist Association Bohinj has been organizing the event for more than 60 years. The event is attended by herders, who bring decorated herds of cattle from the higher mountains and bring a “basenga” on their shoulders (everything they need to make cheese and other things necessary for life on the mountain).
In the idyllic Ukanc, we always provide a rich program with an ensemble, folklore dancers, and brass bands, as well as good homemade food and drink. Cows’ Ball is a real Bohinj holiday that you should not miss.
