A Welsh Coal Mining Experience

Whatever the weather, a trip to A Welsh Coal Mining Experience at Rhondda Heritage Park is a must, where visitors can enjoy a unique experience at this authentic coal mine in the South Wales Valleys. Learn about the international story of Welsh coal and about the people who made it a global business, including Lewis Merthyr, the owner who wrote the first one million pound cheque, and of the mine’s links with the RMS Titanic. A living testament to the coal mining communities of the world-famous Rhondda Valleys, this popular family tourist attraction offers a fascinating insight into the rich culture and character of the area. Ex-coal miners guide visitors on the Black Gold Experience underground tour, a 90 minute journey around the colliery site. Nobody knows the coal industry better than these guides, and visitors will marvel at their tales of life underground.
