Corris Mine Explorers

During your slate mines North Wales exploration you follow in the footsteps of Victorian slate miners with the best Mine Guides. You’ll experience the broad tunnels and cavernous chambers where the world’s finest slate was excavated by both hand and explosive, before being shipped around the world. From the moment you step through a hidden door in the mountainside, you’ll be immersed into a way of life and work which changed little throughout the mine’s history.

Having barely been touched since the mine was abandoned in the 1970s, the countless awards and outstanding reviews explain how unmissable this authentic and fascinating experience is and how it’s one of the best UK family attractions. We are officially one of the best things to do in Wales.
