In this version, there is also a trio, Karl, Theresa, and William, who usually try to do something that would degrade Peter, whom they often refer to as a mountain goat, in some way or another.

The series was produced from 2013 to 2014, mainly in France, much like Maya the Bee and Vicky the Viking before, including being done by the same main studio, on the behalf of ZDF, but in this production, multiple other companies, including the Australia-based, specifically-made Heidi Pyl, joined in on making the series.

In the first production, from the writing bible, written by Christel Gonnard, the first twenty-seven episodes had their locations shot with high-definition footage, for reference to the animators making the now-fictionalized locations of the series, in Haute-Savoie for the Alps (referred to as that, rather than the Alm, as in the base series and novel) and in Friborg for Frankfurt, similarly to Zuyio (later Nippon)'s team shooting pictures of the official locations themselves, and for the setting references to background painters and writers, for the base series.

The theme music was two songs at the time; the credits song, replaced by a piece of background music from the series, when the series was bought the rights out of, was sung by Cindy Santos, first known in 2006, when she participated in the French show Nouvelle Star.

Due to the partnership of Eurovision Fiction, the series was sent to their affiliated countries, including Ireland, Norway, Cyprus (in Greek dub), Slovakia, Bulgaria and Poland and aired (as of recent, at least part-finished) on the EBU member chains of those countries.
