Restless explorers can discover not only the attractions above ground, which can be seen in all their splendour from the surrounding hills and the Born path leading to Mt Preval with the renowned Born tunnels. Secrets are also hidden underground. One of them is an abandoned mercury mine. Part of the mine is available for guided visits.
