Personal encounters among visionary alpinists paved the way for the founding of the German Alpine Club. Vent’s Widum, described by Johann Stüdl as “the coziest base for high-altitude tourists,” was at the heart of this development.
Franz Senn—pastor and innkeeper, fearless mountaineer, and progressive advocate of the Alps—became the driving force behind this movement.
Today, the new Widum in Vent serves as an information center for Ötztal Tourism and hosts an exhibition by the Ötztal Nature Park. The Alpine Club Museum offers a glimpse into the preserved guestbook of Vent from that pioneering era.
