When the scent of sawdust hangs in the late summer air and the country’s top wrestlers compete against one another, one thing is clear: it’s time again for the Federal Wrestling and Alpine Festival (ESAF).
From 29 to 31 August 2025, the Glarus region will become the heart of Switzerland. Around 350,000 visitors are expected to witness top-level wrestling, living tradition, and a unique folk festival.
At Tellco pk, we are proud to be part of this magnificent event. With our contribution – the magnificent Brown Swiss cow Linda as one of the coveted live prizes – we are supporting this living tradition and celebrating our national sport and its values together with Switzerland.
