Mine tour by train
Put on your mining equipment and take a ride on a genuine mining train right to the heart of the mine, the Moring district. Driving through the 3.5 km long Glančnik tunnel lasts about 15 minutes and can truly be described as a unique experience. You will step out at the station in the heart of the mountain, 600 m below the surface of Veliki vrh. Accompanied by an experienced guide, you will head for the tourist trail to find out more about the history of mining. Numerous exhibited objects reveal the everyday work and lives of miners. Upon request, we can even serve a real miner’s lunch or breakfast. At the end of the tour, you will hop back on the train and return from the mine full of impressions. The entire tour lasts from 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours.
In the mine, different types of mining equipment and tools are presented that were used by miners in different historical periods, from the early beginnings over 350 years ago until the last days of mining in the past century.

Greetings,

The area around the Petzen mountain has a sensitive and interesting geodiversitiy in the middle of the Geopark Karawanken. Sensitive natural areas, environmental topics and climatic changes are difficult to transport to all relevant classes of population in the sense of a broad sensitization in everyday life.The trend of digital media entertainment is becoming more influential,which leads to a smaller degree of movement,concerning children and adolescents.The aim of the project is to make a contribution to the improvement of the aspects mentioned before, to create a broad public awareness in the cross-border adventure area of the Petzen mountain.In a playful, attractive way, the varied geodiversity and its interrelations with global topics are conveyed.The main aim of the project is to strengthen the sensitization of natural conditions (regionally and globally) through a combination of attractive "offers in movement" and "nature and geo experience", thus also facilitating the access of a broad public to these issues.A network of adventure offers, in which one can experience geodiversity and the environment in a playful way and move freely and playfully in this nature, should bring out as a main output the importance of this sensitive border crossing natural space.Sensitive areas (Natura2000 sites) are excluded from use, but the content of these sites will be communicated in the vicinity at suitable places.Geodiversity, as well as the need for recreational activities in nature do not end at national borders.The results should be made available to the public.The goal is not to protect the area via sub-shelters, but through a spatially targeted use and an intensive awareness formation through a nature geogame. The entire network of excursion destinations is to be integrated into the management structure, administration of geodiversity as well as conservation technology within the framework of the bilateral Geopark.
