Hopsi Children's Winter Wonderland

Schladming

A great offering for all ages - discover the ski fun zone in the Märchenwiese area!

The Planai has something to offer skiers of all ability levels. Novices and pros, for example, will enjoy fun and action on the Planai Funslope. Over a distance of 575 metres a varied offering of snowpark, boardercross and piste facilities awaits you.

Throughout the year you can meet Hopsi, the popular WM mascot, on the Planai.

Novices and seasoned skiers alike are in the very best hands at the local ski schools. The ski schools offer special children's programmes for a variety of ages and ability levels.

Even more skiing fun for our little guests!

The Children's Winter Wonderland is in the Märchenwiese area and can be reached not only on skis but also with the new "Hopsi-Express" inclined lift. This makes it an ideal area for little novice skiers and their families. The emphasis is on fun and pleasure - in the Hopsi Children's Winter Wonderland little ones have plenty of room to make their first moves on the slopes. There will also be a public area next to the ski school site where little downhill daredevils can learn to ski in a fun way. There is a pedestrian tunnel to the Hopsi-Express summit station, enabling children, families and night skiers to proceed safely from the Planai mountain station to the Hopsi Express.

SKILL: Fun without skis

Hopsi slide

Here you can enjoy not only the slide but also the beautiful Dachstein panorama. It is the perfect place to take your picture with Hopsi.

Kasalm

Situated right at the bottom station of our new Hopsi Express, the Kasalm offers a lot of fun with its slide and indoor marbel run. You can prove your accuracy by shooting at the cheese wall.

Dachstein gondola

Climbing, frolicking, sliding! Our Dachstein gondola, which was used directly at the Dachstein from 1969 until 2013, is a great fun factor.

Pistenbully

Jump on the pistenbully from our climbing wall or pull yourself up by the cable winch. On the inside, sound effects are waiting for you which will make you believe that you are using the machine right then and there.

Hopsi's winter hiking path and the North Pole

If you really want to enjoy our beautiful mountain, we opt for the 2 kilometres long circular hiking trail. From Hopsi Express' bottom station past the "Little China Area" (close to Märchenwiesenhütte) you will reach the starting point of the hiking trail.  The eight meter high new play station North Pole with slide and marble runs is particularly impressive. Alongside the trail you can find the Steirereck which invites you to sit down, rest and enjoy the view. Walking time about 45 minutes

SKILL: Snowplough

The perfect place for anyone who still feels a little bit insecure on their skis:

Little China

The highlights in this area are the china slalom and the wave railway. While skiing through the wave railway you can create your own sound via a xylophone or listen to oriental music when high-fiving the gong.

Fahr Long - conveyor belt

This area is the home of our dragon "Fahr-Long". He is the conveyor belt that transports you to the china slalom and the wave railway.

SKILL: Advanced

Croco-Trophy

All the little speeders who already know how to use the t-bar can make their way to the Coco-Trophy in Australia. Here, crocodiles and other animals from down under are waiting for you.

"Waldweg"

The newly built forest path with many handcarved native forest animals can be reached from the summit of the Planai, branching off from the ski path in direction Mitterhaus. This offers an easy descent from the hightest point of the Planai back to the Hopsiland, Area Märchenwiese.

Funslope & Funcross

Fun & action for young and old. Dynamic and steep curves, speedy snow waves, mysterious tunnels, exciting snow snails, and a lot more. 

Slalom incl. Ski Movie

Pure race feeling at our slalom next to the Weitmoos lifts. You can register your lift card at the starting point and view your run online afterwards.

SKILL: Professionals

Superpark Planai

"Aim high" is the motto of the Superpark Planai. The Park is structured in 3 kicker lines - beginner, intermediate, advanced - and features all in all 17 kickers.
