Schweiger Ranch is pulling out all the stops for its annual authentic Schweiger Ranch Austrian Christmas event on Saturday, December 7, 2024, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. In Austria, Christmas is a time of reflection and gathering with friends and family. Bring the family to see Santa and his reindeer, enjoy Austrian food and beverages and other activities for children and adults.
Take a horse-drawn carriage ride. Stop by the Christkindl Market for presents that will add a local handcrafted touch to your gift giving.
This FREE festival is sure to whisk you back 145 years into the past, when the Schweiger brothers moved to Colorado from Austria and settled their homestead.
