Good to know

Extension

From the Märchenwiesenhütte you can also walk the Hopsis Weltreise loop up the Lärchkogel. Around the Planai summit runs the Waldwegerl trail with animal figures.

One lift per day

The Schladming-Dachstein Card covers one lift up and down per day. That's why the trip starts and ends at the same lift.

For older visitors

For a calmer walk there is the Planai Panorama-Rundweg: 2.3 km, almost level, around the summit with views into the Enns valley.

Why “stroll”

Flat, wide path that anyone can manage.
