A new experience of checking in at the Hallstatt Salt Mine for a thousand years🧂

#September Good Places 2025
The Hallstatt Salt Mine is not only the oldest salt mine in Austria, but also an explosive experience across 7000 years of history! 🧂

Take a ride down the miner's slide, straight through the mysterious underground world, and feel the miners' daily work in a super down-to-earth manner. The most surprising thing is that you can take a boat trip to the underground salt lake. The atmosphere is like being in a fantasy movie. ✨

Between the tours, history and technology blend perfectly, explaining in a very vivid way how “white gold” shapes Hallstatt’s economy and culture – not only is it powerful and profound, but even the children are fascinated by it.

The whole trip is both knowledgeable and fun, with the wooden slide and the miner's train are one of the must-plays, so you can feel how long the cobblestones have been left behind in a fun interaction. Whether you like history or geology, everyone who comes to Hallstatt Lake District must not miss this salt mine to witness the divine combination of human wisdom and natural resources! 💎
