It is no secret that the Erzgebirge (Ore Mountains) is renowned far and wide for its hiking trails. But did you know that your steps don’t have to go only to Kl\u00ednovec, Bo\u017e\u00ed Dar or J\u00e1chymov? Everybody goes to the mountains, but only a few people go “under the mountains”. So put on your safety helmet and boots and “up” to the underground. The summer season has begun!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the Karlovy Vary Region you can find several mining monuments where iron, tin or copper ores were mined. Some of them are even so important that they can be found on the UNESCO list. You may not have known that the Erzgebirge is interwoven with hundreds of kilometres of mine tunnels, which are sometimes more than 500 years old. These medieval mine workings traditionally serve as a wintering ground for bats during autumn and winter. But they’re gone now, so we invite you to explore the most interesting ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
