Mining Park Vagonetto

Fokis Mining Park–Vagonetto is a unique theme park, situated on the 51st km. of the Lamia-Amfissa National Road in Greece, between mountains Ghiona and Parnassos, within the broader area of S&B Industrial Minerals S.A. premises.

Vagonetto aims at presenting the operation areas of a mine, but also at informing, recreating, and educating the new generations on the history of the exploitation of bauxite, and on the people who worked in mines, honoring and promoting the mining history of Fokis.

A tour through Vagonetto gives the visitor the chance for a step-by-step introduction to the bauxite mining process. The acquaintance with the history of bauxite begins in the exhausted underground Gallery 850, continues in the Exhibition Area and the Interactive Digital Technology Wing, and is completed at the Open-air Machinery Exhibition.

Vagonetto is open daily, on weekends and on holidays (except on Easter Sunday and August 15th ) from 9:00 to 17:00. Start of last guided tour at 15:30
