About OLLI

The marketplace for off-road & overlanding — formerly 4x4Schweiz.

One Life. Live It.

Everything that matters outdoors – in one place.

OLLI is the first and only marketplace that brings together everything that matters outdoors: vehicles, cabins, trips, tours, events, conversions, gear and training. Worldwide, at home in the German-speaking world.

For everyone who's at home outdoors. Who ask: “Will it hold up?” – not: “Does it come in beige?”

Used to be on 4x4Schweiz? You're in the right place. 4x4Schweiz is now OLLI. Same community, same attitude, bigger horizon.

4x4Schweiz is now OLLI

Same community, bigger horizon.

Since 2014, 4x4Schweiz.ch has grown – with every story, every listing, every comment. What began as a passion project is today one of the largest platforms for off-road and overlanding in the German-speaking world.

Started as 4x4Schweiz

At some point the name no longer fit. We're more than 4x4 – and more than Switzerland. Readers from Germany, Austria, South Tyrol, Alsace and the Benelux countries have long been part of it. So after more than eleven years we didn't just touch it up – we rebuilt everything: multilingual, open, made for everything that happens outdoors.

OLLI stands for ONE LIFE. LIVE IT. Not a bumper-sticker slogan, but an attitude. Existing accounts and listings were carried over – if you were with us before, you just set a new password once.

Three things, one place

Marketplace, Stories, Spotlights.

The marketplace. Vehicles, gear, services, trips, training – buy, sell, book. Everything around off-road, overlanding and outdoor, with no wasted reach.

Stories & Field Notes. Real stories from the Friends of OLLI – travellers on the road, at their own pace and with their own view. Not staged, but real. You don't always know each other. But you recognise each other.

Spotlights. Editorial features for brands, manufacturers and people with real insights – right where buyers are already thinking.
