It is difficult to find information in English on Bärbeletreiben, but this article explains the parallel tradition (Klausentreiben) for men:

If you have never been to this region, it is really nice. Sonthofen, Fischen im Allgäu and Oberstdorf. Many mention the Kleinwalsertal Tal in Österreich, but you can also travel east then south towards Schoppernau and the Diedamskopf in Österreich. Nice hiking areas in Summer. From Schoppernau you are not far from Bludenz, Schruns and the Silbertal. It is easy to make this into a week stay. Sonnwendfeuer (Solstice bonfire) on the mountains in Silbertal when the weather is good. 22 June this year.
