A look back

It is his soul place, his heart place: Altaussee. Year after year, Wolfgang Lederhaas, mastermind of LEDERHAAS Cosmetics, travels to this place for summer and winter recreation. The same route around the lake, the same food, the same deep sleep of relaxation, always the same house. With the clarity of the air comes the clarity of thought. The water of the lake is clear. And pure and clear is the mineral that inspired the Rock Salt Edition. The Altaussee mountain rock salt.

All-natural – the power of mountain core salt

It is called the treasure of the Salzkammergut, the Altaussee mountain core. The Austrian natural salt was once a sea salt and was sealed in the mountain 150 million years ago when the Alps were formed. To this day, the salt treasure, enriched with many minerals, is stored in the heart of the Salzkammergut. From the best natural salt deposits in the depths of the mountain, where the salt is the purest and protected from all environmental influences, it is mined by hand and without blasting according to mining tradition. The Altaussee natural salt is characterized by its special high quality, which is reflected in the incomparable taste and the unmistakable appearance of the reddish-brown color (high iron content and balanced mineral composition).

salt on our skin

The effect of natural salt on well-being and health is often underestimated. With its minerals, the Altausseer Bergkernsalz helps to accelerate the healing process. However, the many uses of salt are not as well known as one might expect. The Viennese doctor Dr. Although Franz de Paula Wirer was not the first to deal with salt and its effects, he did so in a more comprehensive and thorough way than anyone else before him. dr Wirer was the first to discover that the medicinal baths and brine treatments that were already known at the time could by no means only be carried out successfully by the sea, but that the local brine and other applications of salt from our mountains also have the same health effects as sea baths. And so a Viennese became the founder of the spa and bathing establishment in that small Salzkammergut town, which only became famous Bad Ischl through him.
