Vagonetto - Fokis Mining Park

 

attractions greece

Vagonetto is a unique thematic park, where you will have the opportunity to follow the lives of miners and visit a real underground gallery. Experience it!

 

A tour through Vagonetto gives the visitor the chance for a step-by-step introduction to the bauxite mining process. The acquaintance with the history of bauxite begins with a tour in the exhausted underground Tunnel 850, continues in the Exhibition Area and ends with a visit at the Interactive Digial Technology Wing

 

Gain first-hand experience and explicit knowledge of how Bauxite is excavated. Experience the everyday life of miners through their own narrations. Get on the train that was used to transfer them in the heart of the mountain and ‘listen’ to their conversations
