We did the underground tour. Warning: it’s cold, can be a bit wet and muddy, so dress appropriately to fully enjoy the tour, which lasted about an hour. They give you helmets and plastic capes to protect you. I saw a lady in a short skirt, no tights, and nice low shoes. I’d be surprised if she ensued the tour down. Book ahead to avoid disappointment t. The area is big with something to suit everyone; interactive and descriptive museum, souvenir shop, cafe/restaurants in and around the area. A small train runs in the area, and I guess it especially attracts the smaller ones If you’re into walking, you can walk around the whole “hole”

The two-hour tour of the silver mine is excellent; the history is fascinating. Note it is surprisingly cold inside (2C in winter).

Stripa mine has a will of steel and even though there’s no mining, the place is everything but quiet. The iron processing has been replaced by guided tours, markets and all kinds of events. A new chapter in Stripa history has begun, welcome!
