Highlights

Ready to explore the underground world of a goldminer? At Bald Hill Tourist Mine, you can walk through a real 1870s gold mine! With a fun guided tour, you’ll step into the shoes of a goldminer and learn how they worked in the deep tunnels to find gold. It’s like stepping back in time! Plus, if you’re feeling adventurous, you can climb up a 30-meter ladder to exit the mine through the ventilation shaft!

It’s a fascinating experience for anyone who loves history and adventure!
