Salt mines

The tour is available in these languages:

Beginning from Salzburg, we will pass by the Hellbrunn area on our way directly to the salt mines. Before entering the mines, you will be provided with protective clothing making you look just like a miner. Then travel by a miner´s train into the heart of the mountain. Once inside this remarkable underground world, our knowledgeable, local miner/guide will amaze you with tales of the history of the salt, how it was mined, transported and used.

As we travel farther into the caverns, use the miners´ slides – great fun for all ages. Travel by raft across a salt lake for another astonishing experience.

Once you have been enchanted by these underground labyrinths we will return to the outside world by miners´ train. As we travel back to Salzburg we will pass by Untersberg Mountain.

Fun and interesting for all ages, don´t miss this unique opportunity to experience this underground world!
