Our eight Explorer Hotel in Ötztal valley has opened its doors in winter 2018 to welcome all sports-loving explorers. Have you already got the chance to visit us? Learn more about the diverse leisure time activities that await you in Ötztal valley.
Breathtaking adrenaline kick in the winter
There are lots of alpine valleys, but there isn’t one that offers as many highlights as the Ötztal. With over 70 lifts, 350 kilometres of slopes, 3,000 vertical metres and a cross-country skiing network that includes all levels of difficulty – this is where you will find everything you need.
Or, if you like, take a spontaneous day trip to the nearby winter sports centre of Sölden. The town is internationally known due to events such as the AUDI FIS Skiing World Cup, the glacier spectacle HANNIBAL or the Electric Mountain Festival. Are you a fan of James Bond films? If you are, then here you will have the opportunity to see the shooting location of “Spectre” and pretend that you – just like your hero – are on a secret mission. Jump right into your own thrilling adventure!
In summertime, the Ötztal adventure beckons
