Map, elevation profile & further information

You start this ski tour at Kinderland and follow the markings to the southwest, past the Kothüttensee on the pronounced ridge and on or next to it to the Karlspitze with summit cross. Continue on the flat ridge to the south and finally moderately steep to the Schreinl, where you are also welcomed by a summit cross. Up to here you can estimate about 2.5 hours walking time. This is followed by the descent to the Goldbachsee, where you skin up again to ascend the Goldbachscharte. Here you can take off your skins and enjoy the final descent to the starting point Planneralm.

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.
