Those who were not lucky enough to receive a starting place in the Ötztaler Cycle Marathon in the official draw, still have the opportunity to take part in the event. When booking a package offer (minimum stay 4 - 7 nights in a category of your choice), a starting place for registered athletes is guaranteed. But you have to be fast! The package deals can be booked only on two days in March.
There is no right to a starting place for bookings made already before.
Please read the following information carefully already BEFORE you book a package deal!
The package deal connected to the Ötztaler Cycle Marathon is exclusively available during the Ötztaler Cycle Marathon (30.08.2020) period. Only ONLINE bookings are accepted!
A minimum stay of 4 to 7 nights is required. The package price does NOT include the resort tax of € 2.50 per adult/night – which must be paid in cash on the spot, directly in your accommodation.
Apart from that, the package deal is available as participant's package with or without accompanying person(s) who don't take part in the sports event.
Additionally, the package deal also includes a guaranteed start place (in the 2nd start group) in the marathon for registered athletes. This start place cannot be passed on to another person. And it is not possible to transfer it to the following year.
In case of cancellation, which can be made at the booking center in writing only, the following cancellation fees must be paid:
| until 26 June 2020 | from 27 June 2020 | from 27 July 2020 | from 12 August 2020 | No Show |
| no cancellation fee | 50 % of the total package price | 70 % of the total package price | 85 % of the total package price | 100 % of the total package price |
In case of cancellation no additional processing fee will be deducted.
If a package booking is cancelled also the start place will be no longer valid! We strongly recommend a cancellation insurance - please check the travel insurance link in your booking confirmation.
The package can be booked online either with or without Ötztal Premium Card - depending on the accommodation you choose in the booking process:
The package is available only online at our website www.oetztaler-radmarathon.com under "Accommodation & Resort Info / Packages incl. Start Place". It can be booked online on the days listed below between 08:00 am and 12:00 noon; a minimum stay is required.
A limited number of 500 start places is available, which will be distributed over the following booking days. If some start places are not sold they will be transferred to other dates:
16 & 17 March 2020: booking for min. 7 nights (or longer)
18 & 19 March 2020: booking for min. 6 nights (or longer)
23 & 24 March 2020: booking for min. 5 nights (or longer)
25 & 26 March 2020: booking for min. 4 nights (or longer)
For valid bookings your full address, the correct first and last name and date of birth of all (accompanying) persons are absolutely necessary.
Due to a limited number of start places (500) the package deal is only bookable for a maximum of 6 persons. Therefore 2 or more separate bookings are required for bigger groups.
Booking the package you can choose from all accommodation categories in Ötztal, ranging from holiday apartments and private B&Bs to hotels for all pocket books.
You can book start places (max. 6) according to the number of registered athletes, which means you are allowed to book one start place per registered cyclist! If the number of start places does not correspond with the number of persons in the package deal (e.g. apartment for 6 person and 2 start places), then enter the following into the "MESSAGE" box: first name and last name of the athletes who will take part in the marathon. The athlete(s) with starting place must be part of the completed package booking.
The start place is bound to the booking of a package. This booking cannot be changed afterwards. If you cancel the booking of your package also your start place in the marathon won't be valid anymore - it is not possible to transfer a start place to another person.
After completing your package booking it is legally binding. The contract is made between both contractual partners - the "Guest" and "Ötztal Tourismus Incoming GmbH". Please note that the package booking is guaranteed only after 100% prepayment by credit card or by bank transfer to the bank account of ÖTZTAL INCOMING within 10 days of booking. Only after receipt of payment the athlete's name will be displayed in the start list. When paying by credit card, a transaction time of 14 days must be considered.
The amount must be paid in full and in only one transaction by bank transfer or by credit card (Mastercard, VISA). The contract partner has to bear all costs incurred (e.g. money transfer fees). Find more detailed information in your booking confirmation which will be sent via e-mail to the contract partner after a successful booking process.
If the package booking is cancelled for whatever reason, a written message - containing also the reason for the cancellation - must be sent immediately to ÖTZTAL INCOMING: incoming@oetztal.com. The cancellation is valid from the moment you receive a written confirmation of the cancellation!
The following circumstances result in an automatic cancellation of the booked package without prior notice:
Please note that you cannot change - for example - check-in/check-out dates and that no additional person can be added once you booked the package deal. In this case, send a request to incoming@oetztal.com. If there are vacancies, an additional booking will be made at the accommodation (without start place).
