Salt Tour - On Rails, By Water, and in the Blacksmith's Forge
Jump aboard the vintage train and join us on a journey. Experience Mariager Salt Center, enjoy brunch at Café Salt, and look forward to a boat trip where afternoon coffee is savored on board the tour boat Swan on Mariager Fjord.
How about departing from the beautiful old railway station in Handest aboard the 70-year-old Railbus "Den Røde Rubin" and continuing through the picturesque landscape, heading towards Mariager? Onboard, you can dream yourself back to the life of a train passenger in the 1940s. The train chugs up hills, winds its way under beech trees, and suddenly the stunning Mariager Fjord appears on your left.
Upon arrival in Mariager, you'll be right at Mariager Harbor where you'll find Mariager Salt Center. Here, you step into a world of salt, where not only salted experiences await but also a delicious brunch at Café Salt.
Of course, you shouldn't miss out on a guided tour of the center, where salt is boiled, visits to the mine are offered, and the "history of salt" is told, among other things.
Once you've had your fill of salt, a boat trip awaits you aboard the tour boat Swan, heading towards Hobro. Onboard, there will be coffee and cake, while you can enjoy the view of the hilly landscape around Denmark's most beautiful fjord, carrying new wonderful memories with you.
Back in Hobro, a bus awaits to take you back to your car in Handest.
