Salzburg से Hallstatt तक निजी कार स्थानांतरण

When driving out of Salzburg, the vibrancy of the old-world city gives way to vivid lakes and mountainous backdrops. The distance to Hallstatt weaves through striking mountainscapes, with the final kilometers of the drive winding you around Hallstätter See (Lake Hallstatt) and bringing into sight the romantic, steepled town center.

Aside from its impossibly beautiful town center on the shores of an alpine lake, Hallstatt is known for salt mining and the historic mine, Salzwelten, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. These tunnels are thought to be the oldest salt mine in the world, dating back to prehistoric times. Strolling around the town provides a cozy fairytale backdrop of 16th-century alpine houses and a plethora of welcoming cafes offering rest to those who have taken the trip to nearby hiking trails.

Pack a jacket

The alps get chilly and can have surprise rain (or hail, sleet, or snow). Keep a waterproof jacket in your travel bag, and maybe an insulator as well. Aside from inclement weather, you’ll be happy to have some added warmth when you tour Hallstatt’s famous salt mine or ice caves, where the temperatures are perpetually freezing.

Stop for sightseeing

Driving can cut your travel time between the two cities almost in half, though it is certainly worth taking your time and stopping along the way to explore villages such as St Gilgen on the banks of Lake Mozart or Bad Ischl for its spas and history of early photography. The best way to take in as much of the scenery as possible is to go by car and turn your travel day into a sightseeing adventure, avoiding the inflexibility of public transport timetables.
