I was impressive about how this accident site was set up, letting the visitors remember what happened, and remind people the priority of the working safety.65 mine workers were killed here in one single explosion because safety wasn’t a priority.....

What a neat place to stop for a short loop walk around Brunner Mune Historic Area. Lots of informative signs about the history around the track. Beautiful scenery and interesting old historic sights to marvel at. There's a place near the water's edge for some great photos, but the rocks can be slippery when wet

New Zealand does historical sites well. This site is well preserved, with well maintained paths and information boards. It's right on the side of the road so no excuse not to stop if you haven't been here before.

Even on a wet day this place is a great place to stop. Lots of interesting old ruins and heaps of information to take in from the displays. The toilets were clean too. Highly recommended.

Great stop off for some history, fantastic views,memory plaques. One spit triggers a story telling - wasnt expecting that. Walk across the other side via the suspension looking bridge. Allow an hour. Decent parking. Toilets.

Cool little walk that you can do around what is left of the 'ruins'. There is a stack of information available to read on the signs as you walk around too. Its only 10 minutes drive from Greymouth so it is worth visiting as it does not take too much time at all. You can really get a feel for how hard it must have been for them back in the day.

Stumbled upon this well organized historical site. Really top notch. They rebuilt a historical bridge along a coal and clay mine/coke and brick factory. Really recommend a stop to stretch the legs. Easy walk. Steep for wheelchairs but accessible.
