From Planet Planai, the route first heads towards the Protestant Church before turning left into the Talbach Gorge. This impressive canyon leads gently uphill into the Untertal Valley. There, turn left onto the Tälerstraße and follow it until you reach the junction to the Obertal Valley on your right.

In the Obertal Valley, stay on the asphalt road and continue all the way to the end of the valley. At the Nickel Museum, the surface changes to gravel, leading further towards Eschachalm. This is the perfect spot to take a break and enjoy some local refreshments.

Return along the same route. After passing Pension Bärnhofer, turn left, cross the Obertalbach stream and follow it downstream. Via the Ahornweg, you reach the Obertalbahn – a quiet and scenic section that crosses beautiful alpine meadows.

Continue towards Rohrmoos. Turn left off Rohrmooserstraße and ride past the Hochwurzen valley station. Then follow Hohenbergstraße, which takes you further into the Preuneggtal valley. Cross the Stricker Bridge and continue downstream towards Pichl Lake and the Enns Cycle Path (R7).

Once you reach the Enns Cycle Path, follow it downstream along the River Enns. Enjoy a relaxed ride back towards Schladming. After passing through the historic town gate, several inviting refreshment stops await before you finally return to the starting point at the Planet Planai valley station.

Always wear a helmet and appropriate clothing.
Ride only on paved and signposted paths.
Watch out for traffic at crossroads and road junctions!
Be considerate and give way.
Avoid blocking the rear wheel and thus help to maintain the paths.
Control your speed downhill!
Protect the environment and don't leave rubbish, etc. in the mountains!

In case of emergency, please dial the following emergency numbers: No. 140 - Mountain rescue

No. 112 - Euro emergency call

The right bike: mountain bike or gravel bike with studded tyres, racing bikes are not recommended.

Breakdowns can happen - but rarely at the doorstep of one of the numerous service points: a basic kit of tools and accessories therefore never hurts! Spare inner tube and/or repair kit, universal spanner, air pump, brake and shift cable, as well as a screwdriver can never hurt.

Plan breaks: Along the route, many huts and inns invite you to stop for a relaxing break and enjoy regional specialties.
E-mountain bike: With electric support, the tour is also suitable for less experienced bikers. There are several e-bike charging stations along the route. Their locations can be seen on the map and in the elevation profile, making it easy to plan your tour and possible charging stops.

Take the train from Radstadt or St. Michael to Schladming. From there 3 min by bike to the starting point.

Or directly to the "Planet Planai" stop, where there are rental options on site.
