Open days and the Salt Festival

Solana Nin tells the 1500-year-old story of salt to its visitors every year during the summer months through free guided tours of the salt fields on open days and at the Salt Festival. In Solana Nin, salt is produced by the sun, sea, and wind. Human hands harvest with love, a tradition passed down through generations. The entire Solana Nin is a magical open-air museum visited by over 100,000 people annually. Within the saltworks, there is the Salt House museum and a souvenir shop.

Open days take place during June, July, August, and September until late evening hours with organized activities and workshops. The Salt House museum and souvenir shop within the saltworks can also be visited for free during open days.

During these events, visitors can enjoy free guided tours throughout the day to better acquaint themselves with the tradition of natural sea salt production. Outdoor tours, lasting 45-60 minutes, are organized every full hour in the morning from 8 am to 12 pm and in the afternoon from 5 pm to 7 pm. Walking through the fields is only allowed with guides during organized tours. In addition to touring the saltworks, visitors can freely explore the Salt House and take home practical and unique souvenirs.

The Salt Festival is the central annual event of Solana, held at the beginning of August. In addition to free activities, visitors can also enjoy other activities such as salty games for children, including treasure hunts in the salt fields, puppet shows, drawing and coloring with salt, and other workshops, as well as manual salt harvesting and salt packaging competitions.

We recommend wearing a hat or cap, bringing water, and using sunscreen with protective factor when visiting the salt fields.
