Upper Cawror Slack Mine

Entrance of Upper Cawror Slack Mine

Access

Follow the steep path up the hillside from the Goodluck layby. Ignore the right turn for Goodluck Mine, and continue past several blocked-up adits on both sides. Soon afterwards, around some winding turns, a tree almost obstructs where there is a slight course that goes to the left, leading to this entrance. The entrance needs care when entering due to soft/unstable earth that appears only to be kept in check by to stone stemples at the entry point.
