Overview

  • The beginnings of the salt mine date back to around 1685, when the officer Mihail Cantacuzino identified the salt deposit.
    The mine consists of 14 trapezoidal-shaped rooms, with a base opening of 32 metres, a ceiling of 10 metres and a height of 45 metres.
    The Slănic Salt Mine is considered the largest visitable salt mine in Europe, due to the large volume of excavated salt and the vast space.

    Wine tasting is the process of examining and sensory evaluating wine, including appearance, smell, and taste. It typically involves five steps: observing the colour, swirling the glass to release the aromas, smelling, tasting, and enjoying the wine. The goal is to understand and appreciate the characteristics of the wine.

    The journey takes approximately 8-10 hours depending on traffic.
