Snowboarding in Schladming

An increasingly popular destination for 'boarders, the snowboard park on the Planai is one of three in the area, the other two are at Hoxhwurzen and there' a Burton Superpark open almost year round on the Dachstein Glacier. Aside from the fun parks the terrain mixes wide open piste with the possibility of back country tours, an then there's also the glacier 'boarding options. Although the majority of the lifts are T Bars, all of the Paradise Area resorts have access to the upper slopes by gondola and/or chair. The dedicated Snowboard Schule Dachstein Tauern, based at the Planai gondola middle station organises Snowboard camps, winter and summer on the glacier and runs a shop, supplies demo material and handles rentals and repairs.
