Sygun Copper Mine

Nice and different adventure. You go on tour yourself and can spend time as long as you want. It’s not big, so in about half hour or a bit more, depending on you, you’ll be trough. It is audio guided in the mine with some history to get a feeling of the workers. Especially perfect on a rainy day. The surrounding around the mine is beautiful, even though it rained you can imagine. How much more on a beautiful day.

Good place to visit especially if you are looking for something on rainy days. Nice walk (on your own) through the tunnels of this old copper mine. Approximately 6 Audio animations which are telling you a lot about the history of this mine and how working in this mine looked like. In addition some scenes recreated to get a better impression. Nice coffee area including sandwiches and cake. Also good selection of things to buy with fair prices. Excellent and very friendly staff. Worth a visit if you are in Snowdonia area!

Visited here recently on my solo holiday. No need to book and just turned up and got a ticket, staff friendly. The self guided tour isn’t the longest but it is interesting and has audio points dotted about that provides an insight into the mine and its previous workers. Beware that there are quite a number of very steep steps in the mine and could be a struggle for someone. The views as you come out of the mine are incredible and even the nearby lake walk is beautiful which I done after.

Sygun Copper mine is an educational experience, learning how the miners extracted copper and other minerals within the mine. Hiking boots are highly recommended, just like any other mine or cavern you may visit the view at the end is absolutely stunning. When wife took kids down to the play area, I stayed a few minutes to take some photos and videos and enjoyed the quietness. The cafe offers some really nice pasties. I tried the Lamb and mint one & the leek, onion, cheese and potato pasty. Very very good value at £3 each and they taste more than a premium pasty. Sausage rolls are £2.60, which my kids had. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

Great mine to visit, but it's not the most spectacular. The main problem is they they didn't make it clear how many steep steps there are and how difficult it is if your a bit nervous about confined spaces, heights or see-through steps that are almost like ladders. Great for kids, but not so great for mums... The cafe is minimal with just enough for a light meal

A very interesting visit, which really gives you information around the past of the Miners. I do have to say £11 for what we took us 15 minutes to walk around is very steep (no pun intended) please be mindful there are a lot of stairs too if you’re unable to handle too many, don’t go. The kind man did ask if we were ok with steps, which we are, but we didn’t expect over 180😂 however, it was a good memory made, just a shame it’s not that long.

Fantastic day at this copper mine. Fin welcomed us to the mine and explained about clothing to wear and showed us where to get hard hats etc. He was extremely welcoming and friendly to all my family and offered us alot of advice and places to visit. He gave us alot of information about what to look out for inside and outside the mine. Fantastic day and customer service here from Fin was amazing well done. Highly recommend this place.

Lovely little visit to the Sygun copper mine, the tour takes you through the heart of the mountain and you get to see how the miners mined the ore back in the old days with just a pickaxe and a candle. There is a small museum here and a play area for younguns, you can also extend your day by going for a walk by the lake.
