A very moving site to visit. In its day it must have been a hive of activity. Everything relying on manual labour made for such a high death toll. When you have finished here try to visit the Stillwater cemetery on the Brunner Rd and visit the final resting place of over 30 of the victims buried in a mass grave.

Easy walk for all ages. Good information posted around the area about what happened, and how it was all done.

Free site with lots of signboards to read. Good little walk down to the river and across to the site.

The Brunner Mine site is well rembered for an accident in the 1890'sCross the river and look about.then cross the road and you will find a trail on the hillside which takes the where some of the resident lived then. Well worth a look.

This is a great spot to stop at just before Greymouth. There is no charge and you could spend a few hours here. The walk over the bridge and all the old mine tunnels and brickworks are very interesting. A great piece of history for the area. It's reasonably well kept as well.

If you want to know about the history of coal mining on the West Coast then this site is great. It talks of the mining that went on as well as the disasters that have happened.

To see how the kilns were built and the whole area organised, it must have been such a hive of industry. We did our own thing here and thoroughly enjoyed it even though the temperature was well into the 20's.

Stumbled on this little historical gem, which includes old mine shafts, ruins of many of the original buildings and a lovely bridge spanning the grey river. The outdoor "information center" beautifully presented the tragic tale of NZ's worst industrial accident in history (which killed 65 men and boys on that tragic day in 1896). What's more, the place was entirely devoid of travelers (apparently not the most highly trafficked stop in NZ). Highly recommend.

A geat static display about the Brunner Mine and the story of the worst mining disaster of its time. Restored bridge and display area of Brunner Town and the Mine

What an excellent little exhibition highlighting the history of the area.The bridge is lovely and the pictures and stories are a wonderful insight into the history of this area.Plenty of relics left about and the Honeycomb kilns are wonderous.Take the time and stop and have a walk back in time.
