Schladminger Bergweihnacht - Mountain Christmas

Visitors stroll past market stalls filled with regional culinary specialties, warming punch, mulled wine, and handmade craft items along the festively illuminated Talbach. A central Advent stage hosts performances by local choirs, brass players, and schoolchildren. Children can post their Christmas wish lists at the Engerlpostamt, and guests are invited to help decorate the communal Christmas tree.

Tips & Advice

  • Advent am Talbach opens only Friday to Sunday across four weekends, so plan your visit for one of those weekends.
  • Bring an ornament from home so you can hang it on the shared Christmas tree during your visit.
  • The food and drink stands stay open an hour after the market stalls close, so you can linger over punch.
  • Come on November 28 or December 19 to add the Adventzauber walk through the lit-up Talbach gorge to your evening.
  • Staying over? The tourism office sells special Advent weekend packages, which make it easy to combine the market with the rest of the program.
