The ascent trail starts at the Planai middle station / Lärchkogel valley station and in the first section leads up to the Lärchkogel via the WM path.
It then continues to the Planai summit at 1.906m. Since most of the ascent trail leads through the forest, attention must be paid to the snow conditions outside the slope. The route is marked with boards - please note the guidance system and follow the signposted route.
By car to Schladming and further on the country road up to the Pto the toll station.
Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen ski buses to Planet Planai in Schladming: www.planaibus.at
There are parking spaces on the right in front of the toll booth.
Outside the opening hours of the pistes (from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.), the pistes are generally closed due to the risk of serious accidents during the preparation of the pistes (winch, etc.). It is forbidden to drive on or enter the closed pistes. Climbing along the ski slope outside the operating hours is not permitted. There is a danger to life due to the use of winches to prepare the slopes!
GPS data and orientation aidsAvailable GPS data - like hiking maps - are only an orientation aid, as they can never represent an exact image or the level of detail of a path in reality. Particularly in the case of danger spots, it must therefore always be decided in the end on the basis of the conditions on site whether and what the further course of the path will be.In an emergency, please dial the following emergency numbers: No. 140 - for alpine emergencies - Austria-wide No. 112 - Euro emergency call GSM emergency call service
Mountain sports are - even more so in winter - above all subject to personal responsibility. Tourism associations, mountain railways or avalanche warning services accept no liability whatsoever on the basis of information provided. The Planai-Hochwurzen lifts and the Schladming Tourist Association thank you for your understanding!
The following applies in principle: Before every ski tour or snowshoe hike it is essential to check the current weather and avalanche report - to be found at www.lawine-steiermark.at.
