Hallstatt · Things to do

Bronze Age galleries 400m inside the mountain, an underground salt lake and a long polished miners' slide. Tours run 90 minutes.

The photograph everybody comes for, taken from 350m up rather than from the crowded lane down in the village.

Skulls painted with flowers, ivy and names, stacked since space in the graveyard ran out. Small fee, short visit, long memory.

A flat hour behind the village to the Waldbachstrub waterfall and a glacier garden. Free, shaded, and almost always empty.

The Iron Age culture named after this village, laid out over 7,000 years of it. On Seestrasse by the main square.
