The Widiversum Part III. – Revisiting Widi and His Friends
The story of success of the Hochoetz mountain railways & Sunkid continues
The Widiversum is a unique story of success that goes far beyond the Hochoetz skiing area. Widi and his friends have become the Ötztal brand ambassadors for families and children and have long been known beyond their original location at the Hochoetz Top Station. Three new themed trails were added to the family paradise in the summer of 2019, turning it into one of the largest worlds of experience for children in the Alps.
The Hochoetz mountain railways wanted to build a new reservoir and implement various infrastructure measures in 2014. Creation of a world of experience around the new reservoir was part of the concept as well. In the five years since the Hochoetz mountain railways and Sunkid set out their first plans, the Hochoetz family skiing area, once almost exclusively a winter sports destination, has turned into a year-round destination and the driving engine for the entire region. With this year's expansion, the Widiversum and its themed trails has likely become one of the largest continuous nature-related experience worlds in Europe.
It's a success that pays off for the mountain railways and the entire region alike.
