Por qué merece la pena hacer este viaje
Idar-Oberstein built a cutting industry on these local agate and quartz deposits, so the mine is the starting point of the trade that still runs the town.

The operator states that booking is made online through Ticket Regional, that helmets are provided and ordinary street clothes are fine, and that group size is capped at 25. The gem camp runs at 10:00am, 12:30pm and 3:00pm and lasts about two hours; its digging fields are restocked daily with minerals and gemstones sourced from around the world rather than dug from the mine itself.
