the Hirschbühl (to the left). The Inn zur Frohnwies lies½ M. to
the S. Hence to (9½ M.) Saalfelden, see p. 121.
From Berchtesgaden to Reichenhall, 11 M., railway in 1½ hr., viâ
Halliurm, see Baedeker's Eastern Alps.
10. From Salzburg to Innsbruck viâ Zell am See.
157 M. Railway (Staatsbahn) in 6-7½ hrs. (fares 21 K. 60, 12 K. 90,
7 K. 10 h.; express 30 K. 30, 18 K. 70 h., 10 K.). — Good railway-restaurants
at Bischofshofen and Saalfelden; dinner, at a charge of 2 K., will be handed
into the carriage at either of these places, if previously ordered through the
guard. — Best views on the right.
Salzburg (1350 ft.), see p. 96. — The train describes a wide
curve round the Capuzinerberg (p. 101). To the right is Hohen-
Salzburg; to the left the château of Neuhaus. 2½ M. Parsch (Gais-
berg Railway, see p. 101 ); 4 M. Aigen (p. 102). The Saizach is
now approached, and the precipitous Untersberg (p. 102) becomes
more prominent. To the right, on the opposite bank of the river,
is the château of Anif (p. 102). 6½ M. Elsbethen, 1½ M. to the N.
of which lies St. Jakob am Thurn (p. 102). Beyond (9½ M.) Puch
the train passes the large brewery of Kaltenhausen, on the left bank
of the Salzach, and crosses the Alm.
11 M. Hallein (1450 ft.; Stern, with salt-baths; Alte Post; Au-
böck; Stampflbräu; Gasthaus zum Bahnhof, at the station, un-
pretending), an old town (4700 inhab.) on the left bank of the Salz-
ach, noted for its salt-works, and also making tobacco and cement.
The Dürnberg, whence the salt-water is obtained, rises above the
town. The mode of extracting the salt from the earthy matter with which
it is mingled is described at p. 108. About 200 miners are employed
here. Visitors are admitted to the salt-mines in summer daily at 11.30 a.m.
(2 K. each; at other times 1 pers. 5 K., 2 or more pers. 3 K. each.). The
entrance (2360 ft.) is reached in ¾ hr.; the visit occupies 1-1½ hr.
To Berchtesgaden (7 M.). The road viâ Zill (2165 ft.) is recommended
to walkers, but is rather steep and not very suitable for driving.
15 M. Kuchl, an old village with a Gothic church. To the W.
rises the Hohe Göll (8276 ft.); to the S. the Tennen-Gebirge (p. 118).
18 M. Golling (1530 ft.; Gollinger Hof, R. 2-4 K.;Hôt.-Pens.
Bahnhof, R. 1½-3 K.;Alte Post, Neue Post, Traube, in the village)
lies on a hill, ¼ M. from the station.
The route to the (2 ¼ M.) Golling or Schwarzbach Fall cannot be
mistaken (one-horse carr. for 1-2 pers. 3, 3 pers. 4 K.). Starting from
the station, we cross the railway to the right, and then the Salzach, and
walk in the direction of the white church of (1½ M.) St. Nicolaus, on a hill
(guide-post). In 5 min. more we reach Maier's Inn, and 3 min. farther on
is the inn Zur Mühle. On the wooded slope of the Hohe Göll the Schwarz-
bach is precipitated from a cavern (1900 ft. above the sea-level) and through
an aperture in the rock, over a cliff 200 ft. high, in two vast leaps.
Masses of rock projecting over the abyss form a natural bridge.
The Salzach-Oefen, 2 ¼ M. to the S. of Golling, on the W. side of
the highroad to Werfen (one - horse carr. for 1-2 pers. 3, 3 pers. 4 K.),
are curious and picturesque ravines, filled with huge blocks of rock heaped
together in wild confusion, between which the Salzach has forced its pass-
age for upwards of a mile. These rocks, partly overgrown with wood,
and undermined by the action of the water, are rendered accessible by
