At 1,600 to 2,200 meters above sea level
nature is your leisure guide
You have arrived in the mountain village, welcome.
With every bend along the road from Donnersbach, you are a little further away from everyday life. From now on you can largely do without means of transport, technology and systems. Because the Plannerkessel offers everything for short and long stays to experience relaxation in a varied and natural way.
Use nature consciously,
be yourself again, without any predetermined appointment calendar.
A few ideas for your
summer vacation days:
The Planneralm is ideal for light exercise, but also for hobby athletes to train at high altitude.
Hiking is the classic. Running easy hiking trails is more of a challenge.
Get a "Sommerfreizeitkarte" and create your own training program.
Sports and exercise on the mountain
Our most popular mountain lake is a soothing way to cool down. for hikers
If you swim in the lake, you can enjoy a wonderful panorama and forget that it is not one of the warmest lakes 🙂
Please consider: it is a natural lake, not a bathing pond. Please do not contaminate it – not even with sunscreen.

The Expedition Little John is Alpine playground and training ground at the same time.
The Balanceparcours for smaller children is simply fun and promotes their motor skills at the same time.
The climbing route is a real challenge for older children and adults and trains almost all muscles without you noticing.

The cool nights are your guarantee for the important rest during sleep
On the Planneralm you can holiday in
in the climatic comfort zone.
Sleep at night serves as a necessary rest for us humans. If it is too warm at night, the body can recover less easily because it stays busy cooling the body. On the Planneralm, the nights are much cooler than in the valley or in cities: about 14 degrees cooler compared to Graz.
That's why you sleep more restfully here and can recharge your body's batteries.
