    Smaragdgruvene - Eidsvoll image
    On our recent holiday to Eidsvoll we cycled to the Emerald mine on a sunny Saturday and spend a good few hours there. We enjoyed the walk around the mines and then sat at the waters edge for hours looking for Emeralds with a picnic. We managed to find quite a few! An experience that wont be forgotten. The lady who greeted us was also very helpful and gave told us lots of interesting information about the different stones and how to find them. See more..
