New registrations for the Planai-Classic are rolling in all the time - the anticipation is growing day by day. From January 8 to 10, 2026, the region around Gröbming, Niederöblarn and the Planai will once again be transformed into a stage for a real winter adventure in classic car motorsport.
One of the last true winter adventures
The snow gets deeper, the Dachstein road becomes steeper and more slippery, gusts of wind almost sweep the old cars off the road, the windows freeze shut. The Planai-Classic shows its character here: three days of winter adventure with vehicles built up to 1976 - without four-wheel drive, without electronic aids. Classics that are allowed to show what they are made of in snow and ice. Drifts on snow-covered mountain roads, thrilling special stages and the snow-covered Alpine scenery make the Planai Classic an unforgettable experience for drivers, co-drivers and spectators.
The highlights of the Planai-Classic 2026
- Over 30 special stages on wintry roads
- Four special stages on closed, wintry mountain roads: Dachstein, Planai, Gröbming harness racing track and Niederöblarn airfield
- Floodlight challenge on the harness racing track in Gröbming
- Mountain test on the Planai - the legendary ride up to the finish at 1,830 meters above sea level
