Excerpt from the Wikipedia article

Laufarija je pustni običaj, ki se dogaja v Cerknem. Začne se prvo nedeljo po novem letu, ko se po drugi maši na ulicah Cerkna prikaže prvi laufar. Drugo nedeljo prideta dva ali trije in tako vsako nedeljo več in več, vse do Debele nedelje. Obred traja do pustnega torka, ko simbolično kaznujejo Pusta. Tako preženejo zimo, da lahko nastopi pomlad.
