About Crystal Gold Mine Tour

Who's going deeper underground? You might be! With Crystal Gold Mine Tours, you can delve underneath the surface of the earth on the only authentic 1880s underground gold mine tour in the entire Northwest of the USA!

What's also great about underground tours? They are all year round because it doesn't matter about that weather! We LOVE that!

This particular mine was one of the first hard rock mines in the entire Silver Valley. It was active during the 1880s, but closed, where it was hidden. Luckily for families like you, it was rediscovered in 1991 and became a tour attraction!

Kids - can you imagine how the mine was run over 100 years ago? Well, the work was done by candlelight - and all by hand!

On your tour, your guide will explain ALL about how they drilled with things called "Hand Steels", and how they tested the areas for that precious gold. (Can you imagine doing that now!?)

You can still see some gold and silver in the walls today! 

Some great weather outside? You might be in luck to have an hour of FREE gold panning to enjoy after your tour! It's a super fan activity for the kids, and you never know what they might find - maybe they will strike it rich for your family! (You never know!)

Crystal Gold Mine Tour is a fun and unique experience for the family, taking you into a part of the world you might not normally see! Great for history for the kids too - you don't have to be in a classroom to learn all about the amazing past! 

So great ready for your family adventure - it's mine time!
