And the lively little mascot, WIDI the mountain sheep, resident in the region Oetz, takes you to the best excursion sites in the Ötztal. Unforgettable family holidays await you!

Hey there, I am WIDI!

There is nothing more boring than boredom. What a dull feeling when I even thinkt about it! Maybe that's exactly the reason why I prefer strolling around the Oetz Holiday Region. It leaves nothing to be desired. Of course I am not meek as a lamb - and I am very intelligent: believe me, I am a rather skeptical guy by nature. Only one thing is for sure: the Ötztal has many highlights and attractions to explore.
