Planai-Classic … one of the last true winter adventures

The snow gets deeper, visibility worse, the Dachstein road steeper – and slipperier. Snowdrifts narrow the road, the stopwatch is ticking. Gusts of wind from the Dachstein almost blow the vintage cars off the road, windshields freeze over.

The Planai-Classic lives up to its reputation: three days of winter adventure with cars built up to 1976. Winter at the Niederöblarn alpine airfield, winter in the side valleys of the Ennstal, winter on the Gröbming trotting track – and as the grand finale, winter on the perfectly prepared Planai road.

All of it without all-wheel drive and without electronic aids. This is driving stripped down to its essence – a return ticket to one’s youth. Whoever takes part experiences one of the last true adventures in classic metal.

Dates: January 8–10, 2026
Registration deadline: November 15, 2025
Take advantage now: Book the Planai-Classic 2026 and Ennstal-Classic 2026 as a combo package and save €400 – total entry fee only €5,900 instead of €6,300!
