    A nice and easy hike from Oetz to the idyllic brigde "Weller Brücke". The hike starts in the center of Oetz. From here you walk towards the river "Ötztaler Ache" and follow it on a slightly uphill rising path into the valley until you reach the brigde "Weller Brücke". The beautiful wooden bridge, the romantic winter scenery and the loud raging water invites you to linger.
