The Kansas Underground Salt Museum is a facility unlike any other in the United States; nowhere else in the Western Hemisphere is there a museum located in a working salt mine.
Visitors to the salt museum enjoy a trip 650 feet
below ground where they board a tram that takes them on The
Dark Ride, an area of the underground mine. After The Dark
Ride, visitors exit the tram and are then able to explore the
museum exhibit areas at their leisure.
The mine maintains a 68-degree temperature and 40% relative humidity year-round, making it a very pleasant environment. Comfortable shoes are recommended.
