Board the little train outside Salzwelten Salzburg and allow it to take you deep into the heart of the ancient mountain. Here, you can take a fun ride down long polished, wooden slides in order to reach the hidden salt mines of Salzburg, some of the oldest in the entire world. The adventure doesn’t end – the highlight is a quaint boat ride down a mesmerising underground lake, lying deep and silent within the mountain. This mystifying journey is so intriguing, you’ll have to come back to see the salt mines once again.

Take note that it is very damp down below, the air tastes salty and there are some narrow spaces – this is not for the claustrophobic.
