Rohrmoos
Named rental-search location; confirm the actual collection address.
Choose the correct lift and accommodation area
Planai’s main departure, Planai West and Hochwurzen in Rohrmoos are separate access points. For a railway arrival, add the bus or accommodation pickup needed for the actual residence. A package bearing the Planai or Schladming name should still be assessed by street address and the first ski-day route.
A Rohrmoos residence need not be beside Schladming railway station.
How the arrival fits your chosen base
Connect from Salzburg Airport into the railway for Schladming, or arrange a road transfer.
Planai’s central departure and Hochwurzen in Rohrmoos are different places.
- Compare the full dated airport-to-Schladming rail itinerary and transfer.
- Add the final bus or accommodation pickup after the train.
- Specify central Schladming, Planai West or Rohrmoos/Hochwurzen.
Choose collection around the first ski day
Match the shop to your accommodation and actual lift departure; a Planai or Hochwurzen reference is not one shared address.
Put the accommodation entrance, lesson meeting point and intended collection shop on one map before paying. A lower equipment price in another village can introduce a special fitting or return journey. Ask the chosen shop about collection hours and return conditions; this guide does not promise those commercial details.
Before committing to transport
Rohrmoos accommodation is not necessarily beside Schladming station.
Use a date-specific operator planner for the complete outward and return trips. A published ride time does not include baggage collection, waiting, road delays or the last walk to the building. If the last usable service is too early, compare an organised transfer or an overnight near the gateway before buying a non-refundable connection.

Should I distinguish Planai West from the main Planai lift?
Yes. They are separate entries in the official arrival guide.
Which railway gateway should I use for Schladming and Rohrmoos?
Schladming. Planai’s central departure and Hochwurzen in Rohrmoos are different places.
Should the rental shop be in the same place as my accommodation?
Match the shop to your accommodation and actual lift departure; a Planai or Hochwurzen reference is not one shared address. Compare the real collection and return journey rather than assuming all entries in a ski area are interchangeable.
