This mine takes you through the old workings of this former lead mine, then on a boat ride over the surface of a huge underground reservoir that is used by SCUBA diving enthusiasts. Some of the old mine equipment is on display in the mine tour parking lot. The mine has an excellent safety record as evidence by the sign on the front of the building!!
