Profile

The Ötztaler Urweg leads in 12 stages through the Ötztal valley, from the entrance of the valley right up to the end with its glaciated three thousand meter peaks and back again on a different route. So far as expected. The route is, however, remarkable, as it leads the hiker to original and unknown places in what is probably the most famous valley in Austria. In such a well-visited valley as the Ötztal, a well thought-out booking and management system can show off its strengths particularly well for both guests and partner companies.
