You dress in the mine worker's get-up, called "lomp ", and helmet, and go with the mine locomotive for 1, 5 km into the mountain. There, you may see how mining and transportation of ore was carried out in Sulitjelma You should also sense a little of how life was for the people who had their workingday here.
