Snowshoe hiking tour Jochspitze
Open
On this hike, the Jochspitze gives you a fantastic mountain panorama and thousands of wonderful views.
The Planneralm is a popular skiing area in the northern part of the Wölzer Tauern. But up here you will also find a wonderful area for snowshoe hiking. In the mostly very snowy Plannerkessel, the tour to the 2037 m high Jochspitze can be made easier or more demanding depending on your skills and abilities.

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.
From the parking lot you start in the direction of Hildes Plannerstub'n and follow the toboggan run or the marked high altitude trail uphill. You will soon reach a mountain pasture, the Höhenplateau, and continue over snow-covered mountain pines in the direction of Kothüttensee. Before you turn left and climb up a steep step to the Goldbachscharte and then to the summit of the Jochspitze, take a short break and look at the surrounding Plannerberge. The descent takes place to the Kothüttensee, which is the same as the ascent route, and then there are no limits to your creativity when it comes to your own track layout.
In Hilde's Plannerstub'n you can also go bowling after the hike.
There is a ski bus to the Planneralm on weekends in winter and during the Styrian and Viennese semester vacations.
