Our adventure begins at the designated time in front of the Alcocéber Tourist Office, where we will start our excursion to the Maestrazgo Mining Park and the town of Culla.

Upon arrival at the Maestrazgo Mining Park, we will board a train to the entrance of the Victoria mine. After equipping ourselves with safety gear, we will engage in a walking tour through the underground tunnel, gaining insights into the miners' history.
