Description
The beautiful baroque city of Salzburg in Austria is famous for begin the birthplace of legendary music composer Mozart and the movie locations of the musical blockbuster, Sound of Music. But Salzburg is also famous for its salt mines, after which it is named. 2500 years ago, local Celtic tribes found salt while digging tunnels into the mountainside. Ultimately the tunnels grew into a vast underground network that can be visited today.
The salt mines tour from Salzburg will start from the city and take you south towards the Salt mines. As per protocol, you will be dressed like a miner with protective clothing and go deep into the subterranean world on an authentic miner's train, which covers a distance of roughly 1400 meters. Enjoy the thrills of entering an unfamiliar underground world. Your professional guide or local miner will narrate interesting stories about the history of ‘white gold' in the region.
The Salzburg salt mines tour is a unique opportunity to learn about how the salt is mined, transported and processed. Inside these dark labyrinths, you will even get the chance to ride the 36 meters-long miners’ slides.
