Agri, Mining and Industry
Blinman is a small outback town with a population of 30 permanent residents, passionate about keeping their town alive.
The Blinman Underground Mine Tour experience is an initiative of the Blinman community. The 10-year project involved extensive excavations to access old tunnels that were once worked by the Cornish Miners in 1862.
You can share some of the experiences of the Cornish miners and their families on the personalised fully guided tours combining an intimate theatrical presentation using light and soundscapes. Visitors regularly comment that they felt “transported back in time”.
Tours run on the hour seven days a week and last for approximately one hour.
There is an above ground self-guided walk of one hour duration with interpretive signage to augment the underground experience. Difficulty level medium.
Tour companies are welcome with prior bookings and discounted tour rates.
