Salzwelten Hallstatt

Hallstatt salt mine is something so unique in the world that you should not miss it. 7,000 years of salt mining, is the "Oldest Salt mine in the World". In the Salzberg funicular you are comfortably taken up the mountain to the Upper Hallstatt Valley and to the Skywalk. After a 10 mins walk from the "Top of Hallstatt" a mine train takes you along glistening rock faces into the mountain. By slides (64 m!) you change the levels. Of course, you also can use the stairs, but you should not miss this chance of big fun. Please note that the temperature in the salt mine will be app. 8 to 10° C.

The very heart of Salzkammergut and UNESCO Cultural Heritage. The region is described by the committee as “Nature of extraordinary beauty added to scientific import”. Here besides the beauty of the site you can marvel at archaeological excavations, findings from the oldest salt mine of the world, the world’s biggest collection of sculls with elaborate paintings and much more. The sensational findings even gave an entire epoch and a culture its name: The “Hallstatt Period” and “Hallstatt Culture” are scientific names for the Early Iron Age.
