Hiking enjoyment on the Planai

Hiking Enjoyment on the Planai

If you are in the mood for something completely relaxing, we suggest taking a hike along the scenic pathway which circles the summit of the Planai.

This pram-friendly pathway begins at the Planai mountain terminal and leads you all the way around the top of the Pla­nai. Along the way, you will discover the "Place of Reflection", where you will be able to find complete relaxation – a walk-in wooden sculpture amid breathtaking scenery.

Taking approximately one hour to complete, this is a marvelous opportunity to experience the flora and fauna of Schlad­ming's most famous local mountain.

Experiences on the Hochwurzen

High atop the Hochwurzen, you can truly appreciate nature and the world about you in all its beauty.

The best way to reach the mountain terminal is a ride on the Hoch­wur­zen gondola. Once you are at the top, you can choose from a wide range of hiking opportunities for all tastes. Family-friendly walks alternate with variety packed hikes to neighboring valleys and towns.

One highlight on the Hoch­wurzen is the Höhen­weg path leading to the Giglach Lakes. This Alpine hike captivates with breathtaking natural scenery and the hypnotizing reflections you see in the mountain tarns. The hike takes roughly 6 to 7 hours to complete.
