Experience the thrill of finding gold like the early diggers did!

You will accompany the tour guide to a select area of the river in Pilgrims Rest, where you will be shown how to pan for gold, and for an hour you can pan out as much as you like, and you can keep all that you find.

The area is renown for various metals and minerals as well as gold and you may have the opportunity to find natural silver, gold, copper as well as malachite and haematite in the soil.
