Family skiing holiday in Ötztal

The Hochoetz ski region at the entrance to the Ötztal is thoroughly family- and beginner-friendly. Families with smaller children in particular are in good hands here, as the ski area is easy to navigate and also offers the ideal terrain for the little ones with WIDI's Kids Club. Older children and teenagers, on the other hand, have fun in the WIDI Funpark.

We recommend it because:

  • child-friendly infrastructure and interactive experiences in WIDI's Kids Club and WIDIVERSUM
  • Calm and relaxed skiing fun: 41 kilometres of varied pistes, 100% guaranteed snow and a stress-free atmosphere
  • Attractive family offers: Special offers such as "Happy Family Weeks" and combined ski passes for more variety on the slopes
