THE OLD HUNDRED GOLD MINE TOUR • EXPERIENCE MINING IN ACTION

The Old Hundred Gold Mine Tour is a guided mine tour that takes you 1/3 mile into the heart of 13,000 foot Galena Mountain where you can follow the vein and see real mining equipment in action! Go underground and experience the secret world of the gold miner!

Located just minutes from the historic town of Silverton, the Mine Tour is easily accessible by car and RV.

Outside, at the Gold Mine Tour, the spectacular scenery is awesome and at the end of the rainbow might be your Pot O' Gold - in the Old Hundred sluice box!

Pan for real silver, copper, and even gold - and keep what you find! Best of all, panning is FREE with your ticket purchase!
