Just the drive of Donnersbach - Styria - Austria - on Planneralm road past the huts on Schrabachalm to the ski area Planneralm is scenically beautiful and well worth seeing.

The illuminated night toboggan run Planneralm is 700m long at an average gradient of almost 14%. Since there is no lift, the sledding is a sports experience. From the parking lot you'll reach the start of the toboggan run very easily, since this is just behind off the lift ticket office at Hilde's Plannerstub'n. In the summer begins there the course of the Ennstaler archers. The sled has, as shown in the Google Map, 5 turns and crosses the top of the cross-country ski trail 2 times the toboggan run. Therefore be very careful on the day, which is the exit for the cross-country skiers at this point quite steep and can therefore remain available immediately. The sled runs mainly in the forest and the best view is after the climb on the top.
