DESCRIPTION:

​

Embark on the original pr1motours.com flagship tour of Black Hole Kayaking™, an extraordinary underground adventure! Dive into the depths of abandoned mines and experience kayaking in complete darkness, illuminated only by headlights. All necessary kayaking equipment is provided.  

After a scenic two-hour drive, you'll arrive at the site where an expert guide will brief you on your journey. Begin with a thrilling ride on the original mining train, descending approximately 600 meters below ground. Following this, you'll take a short hike and tackle steep stairs, descending around 95 meters and climbing back up afterward. At the base of the flooded mine, sit-on-top kayaks await for you to explore its maze of passages and galleries.  

The adventure within the mine lasts around four hours, including about one hour of kayaking. With dynamic activities like hiking, paddling, and climbing stairs, you’ll stay comfortably warm. Comprehensive equipment is provided—drysuits with boots, helmets, headlights, gloves, life vests, and more. This unforgettable tour spans a total of eight hours.
