On a bike tour you should take a break here and visit the salt mine. On the guided tour you get a lot of information about the salt mining. You drive into the tunnel with a mine train and then walk through the mine with a guide. You have to put on a fun (and warming) jumpsuit. On the footpath you have to/may slide down two longer slides, you cross the mirror lake (in the mountain) with a raft and go back out with the pit train.

The salt mine Berchtesgaden is the oldest active salt mine in Germany, in which mainly in wet mining salt is obtained, and at the same time a show mine in the district Salzberg in Berchtesgaden. (Wikipedia)
