Irdning-Donnersbachtal: Donnersbach - Planneralm
Irdning-Donnersbachtal is best known in Styria for the Riesneralm and Planneralm mountain areas. This extensive municipality reaches from the Enns valley into the Donnersbach valley, where farms and settlements give way to high alpine pastures and the slopes of the Niedere Tauern. Riesneralm and Planneralm are established centres for skiing and mountain activities, with lifts and mountain restaurants forming part of the upland infrastructure. The present municipality was created in 2015 through the merger of Irdning, Donnersbachwald and Donnersbach. Its setting links the broad Enns valley with quieter side valleys in the Styrian mountains.

The terrain of Styria ranges from Alpine ridges in the north and west to vine-covered hills in the southeast, giving Austria’s second-largest province a distinctly varied character. The Mur is its principal river, flowing through Graz, the provincial capital and largest city. Graz’s Old Town and Schloss Eggenberg are jointly inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, linking Renaissance and Baroque architecture to the region’s urban identity. Southern Styria is known for vineyards and pumpkin-seed oil, while forests and pastureland shape much of the interior.

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
