Maestrazgo Mining Park & Culla Day Trip

We'll meet at 8:55 am next to the Benicassim Tourist Office and head to the Maestrazgo Mining Park by minibus. This site features underground galleries at a depth of 2,600 feet (800 metres) and offers views of the Upper Maestrazgo region.

For 2 hours, we'll tour the Victoria and Esperanza mines. We'll board a train to the Victoria mine, don safety helmets, and explore the underground labyrinths.

Questions about historical mining practices, tools used, and extracted minerals will be answered by an expert guide and informative videos. You will see original mining carts and geological formations of the galleries.

Next, we will return to the train to visit the Esperanza mine and learn about its natural treasures and mining history.

Afterward, we will proceed to Culla for the Temple Route, exploring the town's old quarter, an Asset of Cultural Interest. Highlights include the 11th-century castle, the Knight Commander's granary, and the old hospital.
