This decommissioned nuclear missile facility provides an educational experience about the tensions and technology of that era.

The tour guides are often praised for their knowledge and ability to explain complex systems. While some find the subject matter sobering, many appreciate the historical significance. The site's remote location can be a drawback for some, and the tour involves stairs and tight spaces, which may not be suitable for all visitors.
