Daytrip to Hohenwerfen Fortress & Eisriesenwelt with kids but no car

We're staying in Salzburg in late May and our kids (10, 12, & 15) really want to see the Fortress and ice caves in Werfen.

1) I see that there are regular trains between Salzburg and Werfen. How do we get from the Werfen train station to the Fortress? There is a 5 yr old post on this forum that mentions only a 1.2 hr walk to the Fortress from station - ugh!

2) How do we get from one attraction to the other?

3) Both doable in one day without killing ourselves?

Mahalo Nui!

I can’t remember how we did it. Probably bus, but there will also be taxis. The ice cave is amazing

There are a lot of dissenting reviews about the ice caves in the Internet. Maybe you should check.
