Descrizione
Try your hand at real gold and gem panning at the historic Argo site in Idaho Springs, west of Denver. Learn the prospecting technique, search for gold and gemstones, and keep what you find.
Try your hand at real gold and gem panning at the historic Argo site in Idaho Springs, a scenic 40-minute drive west of Denver on I-70.
Grab a pan, dip it into the water, and learn the same swirling technique prospectors used to separate heavy gold and gemstones from sand and gravel. Argo staff are on hand to show you how it is done and help you spot your finds.
Whatever gold flakes and gemstones you discover are yours to keep as a souvenir of Colorado gold country. It is a fun, hands-on activity for all ages and a great introduction to the mining history that built this mountain town.
Gold panning runs independently of the cable car, so it operates as scheduled even when the gondola is not running. The site sits at high elevation, so bring a hat and water, and be ready to get your hands wet.
