Planai Classic

Austria's most popular winter rally for vintage cars will take place from January 14 to 16, 2027. The rally through the wintry Enns Valley is a special challenge for the limited starting field of 50 vehicles every year – both navigatorily and as a driver.

The competition will be held on snow and ice without all-wheel drive and without electronic assistance. Precise navigation, driving skills, and experience are at the forefront, defining the unique character of the event. Accordingly, interest in the Planai Classic is high.

The winter often shows its demanding side: deep snow, limited visibility, steep passages on the Dachstein Road, and roads narrowing through snow drifts. Wind gusts and icy windows challenge both man and machine equally.

The Planai Classic offers three days of winter rally with vehicles up to the year 1976. The routes include stops at the alpine airfield Niederöblarn, through the side valleys of the Enns Valley, over the trotting track in Gröbming, and as a highlight, over the excellently prepared Planai Road.

The event represents authentic vintage car motorsport under winter conditions and is one of the last great winter adventures of its kind.

Registration deadline: November 15, 2026
