travel europe austria hallstatt salt mine

Halstatt's history is based on the existence of wealth-creating salt mines in the area.
One of these mines is open to the public... kind of touristy, but still fun to visit.
Unless you want to hike a steep hill, you take the tram which provides some nice views of the area.
