Berchtesgaden Salt Mines Tour
Tour Details
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at Hubert-Sattler-Gasse 1 and leave Salzburg behind to drive to the Berchtesgaden salt mines.
On the way there, we'll pass the Königseeache river and the mountainous Obersalzberg area, where the leaders of the Third Reich once lived. Arriving at the mine, we'll put on our miner's costumes to enter this incredible subway world.
As we walk through the corridors once used by the workers in this area, we'll explain how this mineral was worked, what the day-to-day life of the miners was like and the risks they faced on a daily basis. During the tour, you will have the opportunity to slide down the mining slides, a unique experience.
To round off the visit to the Salzburg mines, we'll board a wooden raft for a ride on a salt lake. We'll travel through these unbelievable subway labyrinths again aboard the mining train and return to the outside world.
Before returning to Salzburg, we'll make a stop in the village of Berchtesgaden, and then we'll take you back to the starting point, where we'll say goodbye after a total of 4 hours.
