Itinerary

Rudnik sveta Barbara (The Saint Barbara mine)

Become a Miner for a Day at the St. Barbara Mine! Ready for something truly different? Swap your daily routine for a helmet and a headlamp, and step into the mysterious world beneath Rude! At the St. Barbara Mine, you’ll feel like a real miner—just for a day. Equipped with a hard hat and mining light, you’ll explore centuries-old tunnels carved deep into the earth, once rich with iron and copper. This isn’t your typical tourist stop. Mines aren't something you visit every day—and that’s exactly what makes it so special. It's unusual, fun, and refreshingly offbeat! Hear fascinating stories of miners' lives, discover old tools, and enjoy a hands-on adventure that’s both educational and exciting.
