ÖTZTAL NATURE PARK - MOUNTAINS CLOSE-BY

The Ötztal Nature Park comprises all protected areas in the Ötztal. Covering some 500 km², it is Tirol's biggest and Austria's second biggest in size, stretching from the valley bottom to high Alpine areas and glacier fields. Ötztal's highest peak is the Wildspitze at 3,744 m. The scenic mountain villages of Vent and Obergurgl can be found at the heart of the park - making a perfect base for exploring the region. The main aims of the Ötztal Natur Park are to protect nature, preserve unspoilt landscapes, increase recreational values and promote scientific and cultural research in the region.
