Ski tour to the Schoberspitze

Fantastic ski tour with the best panoramic view of the Planneralm area.

On this moderately difficult ski tour you conquer the dominant mountain of the highest ski village in Styria. Past snow-covered mountain lakes, the route takes you via Karlspitz and Karlscharte along hilly terrain up to 2,126 m, where the summit cross of the striking Schoberspitze is enthroned.

More information

Turn off the Ennstalbundesstraße (B320) at the crossing Trautenfels in direction Irdning, Donnersbach, Donnersbachwald. In Donnersbach after the center of the village turn left towards Planneralm. 12 km long driveway over the toll-free mountain road up to the Planneralm.

On this ski tour you start at the Kinderland and follow the markings, first flat, then a short piece steeper before it goes over the mountain pine field again flatter towards the south. Now you are on the high plateau and already have the striking mountain shape of the Schoberspitze in view. Enjoy this section before you continue uphill to the ridge. Once you are there, turn west towards the now already visible summit cross of the Karlspitze. Once you reach the summit, you descend to the Karlscharte. Then the skins come back up and you climb the last 150 meters to the summit of the Schoberspitze. All around you now see a magnificent mountain panorama. Be it the nearby mountains of the Planneralm or those in Donnersbachwald. You also have a clear view of the mighty Grimming and the Schladminger Tauern to the Tote Gebirge. Resting is now the order of the day before you start your descent.The descent follows the same route as the ascent.

On your return, huts and inns on the Planneralm invite you to stop for a bite to eat.

There is a ski bus to the Planneralm on weekends in winter and during the Styrian and Viennese semester vacations.

Here is the timetable.
