Visit the Museum
Last century, it was a working mine. Now, its an award-winning Museum and Canadian Signature Experience, turning out awe-inspiring sights and memorable family experiences.
So much to see and do. Rumble aboard our mine train as it rolls into the dark. Learn from informative but informal tour guides. Pan for real gold!
