Jales + Pedras Salgadas Mines Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel to kick-start our mining adventure in northern Portugal.

Our first stop of the day is the Jales mine. Upon arrival, we'll learn a little more about the history behind those who work underground. We'll delve into the rich history, current developments, and future prospects of this mining operation, gaining comprehensive insights into its wealth. Did you know this was historically a Roman mine? We'll share with you the links between these eras during the tour.

Following that, we'll explore the Pedra Salgadas thermal park. What adds a fascinating touch to this location and is certain to capture your attention are the houses built among the trees. You'll experience a serene atmosphere in this natural setting.

After 3 hours, we'll bring you back to your hotel, bringing our tour to an end.
