Your Salt Mine Adventure - Join us for an unforgettable underground journey!

Meet at 9:00 AM at Mirabellplatz 2 in Salzburg and hop on our comfy shuttle to the Hallein salt mines. Your guided tour starts around 10:10 AM. Explore ancient tunnels, ride the mine train, zoom down wooden slides, and float on an underground salt lake. It’s a cool 50°F (10°C) inside — dress warmly! We’ll provide a white miner’s suit to keep you clean. After the tour, stop by the gift shop for unique salt souvenirs. We’ll have you back in Salzburg by 12:15 PM — with unforgettable memories.

Salt’s history spans millions of years, with deposits formed from an ancient salt lake in Austria and Germany. By 4,000 BC, humans were using salt to preserve food. The Celts began mining it around 600 BC, and in the Middle Ages, Salzburg’s Prince-Archbishops used it to fund the city’s architecture. Today, you can explore this incredible legacy at Salzwelten Salzburg — the world’s oldest accessible salt mine!
