An unforgettable walk in the salt labyrinth
On the Tourist Route
Guests will admire landscapes that can’t be found on the surface, such as saline lakes and beautiful underground chambers, including the unique St Kinga’s Chapel.
The group will learn about old mining tools and machines and the methods of salt extraction and transport used in the past.
The tour does not require an above-average physical condition, although it is worth bearing in mind the long distance and the need to climb 800 stairs during the visit.
