You won’t want to miss this incredible opportunity to explore remnants of iconic goldmines and try your hand at finding treasure!

Located in the Rocky Mountains 35 miles west of Denver, Central City was one of the top gold-producing districts in the U.S. In fact, in its period of peak production, it was almost named the Colorado state capital!
