The Miners Tunnel in Nevada City, California is the perfect spot to learn about the town's history of gold mining. The old Mogul Water Tunnel, built in the late 1800s, used to accommodate seven miners and take them deep into the underground gold mines of this mountain town. The 270ft long tunnel was hand-drilled and blasted into solid rock and provides visitors with an awe-inspiring look into Nevada City's past. During a visit to the tunnel, guided tours will tell the story of a particularly risky chapter in Nevada City's history, when the miners placed their lives in jeopardy to search for the precious metal. Those looking to experience the tunnel should make sure to wear appropriate clothes and comfortable shoes, as well as a flashlight.
