Planei

To the southeast of Schladming lies an area of good walking and skiing country below the Planei (1,894m/6,214ft). A cableway and a toll road (9km/5.5mi) ascend the Schladminger Hütte (1,830m/6,004ft; inn; accommodation) from which there is a superb view of the Dachstein massif. Near the intermediate station of the cableway (1,350m/4,430ft) is a ski racing run for amateurs (timing facilities).
