Wonderful natural experience.
We visited the mine in the afternoon. You should book your tickets in advance. Entrance fee is €22 pp. The tour guide is in Spanish, but you can get an audioguide in different languages for €3 pp.
Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes. You can not take pictures inside the mine, but the guide can make them for you as many as you want and where you want inside for €1 pp.

Absolutely loved it, plenty of walking underground but so worth it, to see the crystals at the end of the tour, is a "must". Our tour guide was so helpful. We each carried a handy with each stops explanation in our language. It was one of my bucket lists and so worth the experience.

Very nice visit. The people were super nice and the tour was well done. There is an English Audio guide. The whole tour was cool but of course the geode was the best! They let you get a great view. The rest of the tour was also super nice. They had some fluorescent rocks as well. Overall super. Easy to find with parking. Nice view from the top as well.
Definitely do the visit in the morning seems like it could get full by the afternoon.

This place... underwhelming. English translation 3€ each, pictures taken by the guide 1€ each. Pictures were taken by the guide's cell phone with horrible lighting, whether you're ready or not. None of which were good enough to post. False advertisement of people posing inside crystal geode. You pretty much stick your head in and look inside at the end of the 1.5hr tour and that's it.

Very interesting site with a disappointing visit content. While the mine is very interesting in itself, the explanations and the content of the visit were very superficial and disappointing. The presentation could include not only more insights into the scientific characteristics of the geologicall site but also of the rich geological environment in Almería and surrounding provinces.

This is an amazing Geode and worth the build up to it. If you are wanting to see it book in advance as it always seems to be booked out for more than one week, unless a tour cancels at the last minute and spaces become available.
Get there 30mins before your slot.
The tour is only in Spanish so it is well worth getting the Audio guide at €3 each otherwise you’ll be lost. The tour is 90 mins but does pass pretty quickly, culminating in the Geode itself.
You are not allowed to take any pictures in the mine for some reason but your guid will take pict with their phone and you can buy them at the end for €1 and they email them to you, so it’s not too bad.
There are quite a few steps down to the final part so and only one section has a lift for the spiral staircase. So if you do struggle with mobility would be a bit of a challenge.
Well worth the wait you actually climb into the entrance to the Geode and look into it, which is amazing. Then you can get your picture st the entrance which comes out really well.
To go into the Geode you do have to wear a hair net and face mask (assume it’s to keep it clean and pure but never understood that bit).
There is a small gift shop bit they are build a new centre and you can see that it will great once done and a more established tourist destination.
So for €22 each it’s a great visit and a different day out that.
PS it’s not too cold in there, around 14 degrees so a jumper is all that you really need

Afternoon 14 Segovia Trip.
The Pulpí Geode, also known as the Giant Geode, is the one of the largest crystal caves ever found, and is the largest accessible geode in the world.
The geological phenomenon is located in an abandoned silver mine. Discovered in 1999 it opened to the public in 2019.
A geode is a void formed from an air bubble inside volcanic, metamorphic or sedimentary rock. It is filled with crystals formed from mineral deposits.
The Giant Geode measures 8 metres long by 2 metres high, and is covered with huge translucent gypsum crystals up to 2 metres in length. The transparency, size and state of preservation of this geode make it unique.
