„White Gold“– A Funn and Exciting Journey Back in to the History. This tour takes you to one of the world’s oldest salt mines accessible for visitors at Dürrnberg mountain. The “white gold” mined there played a crucial role in the history of Salzburg and far beyond. Donning a traditional miner’s cloths, using a small miner’s train and sliding down smoothly polished wooden slides you will go down level by level and enter not only the mysteries of a world far inside the mountain. You will also travel back in time for ages. A miner will guide you vividly explaining about the history as well as telling exciting legendary tales like the one of the “Man in the Salt”. A highlight will be the raft trip across the subterranean salt lake. With fun and excitement you will discover the history of the “white gold” hidden for millions of years.
On an electric-powered boat you will leave the noisy and busy everyday life behind and enjoy Germany’s deepest and cleanest lake, the Jewel of the Bavarian Alps. This emerald-green, fjord-like lake is towered by the steep walls of rock of the mountain Watzmann up to 1800m and has a depth of up to 190m. On a small romantic peninsula is the landmark of King’s Lake, the ancient Augustine chapel St. Bartholomew. The fascinating King’s lake echo. (During the winter from 06.11.2022 to 01.04.23 boat ride not possible, therefore spending time at the lake and Berchtesgaden town will be possible)
On the way back to Salzburg we will drive through the charming little town Berchtesgaden, if time permits a possible visit to the royal palace and the abbey.
