Austrian Tradition… scary figures (Perchten) at the local events celebrating old customs ….
Perchtenparade – The run of the beasts is quite a physical exercise and the young men participating have to run many kilometres dressed up in the heavy furs and head masks with horns and heavy bells, carrying a weight of more than 20 kg.
