Through the Mountain

Through the Mountain

An extreme tour in the heart of the mountain.

Following the ride on the train underground, from the St. Ignaz gallery, the tour leads – via 420 steps – 100 metres up to the St. Nikolaus gallery and from there to the mouth and the open air. The historic gallery, hewn by hand, is only shoulder-wide in sections and visitors will have to stoop.
This 2.5 hour guided underground tour is a physical and mental challenge. Participants are secured during the 420-step climb. The St. Nikolaus gallery features narrow passages and sometimes ankle-deep water. Everyone reaches their destination by means of common effort.
The tour is suitable for team-building activity.
