Goal of the Activity

ESN goes Perchtenlauf Stockerau

Description

Join us for a typical Austrian tradition - the so called Perchten runs. 
During a Perchten run, groups of people dressed as Perchten parade through streets or villages. They often wear impressive, sometimes frightening masks that are carved from wood and artistically painted. I hope you are brave enough for this unique traditional event, as some Perchten can be really scary.
