Gold Mine Tours

Enjoy a Colorado Rocky Mountain Adventure Today!

Country Boy Mine Tours

Venture over 1,000 ft. into the mountain and get to explore the original workings of the Country Boy Mine as you feel, hear, and smell what it was like to be a Breckenridge, Colorado miner over 100 years ago. Find and keep your riches as you gold pan in Eureka Creek.

Examine old photos and other fun exhibits to revisit the past and marvel at days gone by. This is truly an amazing experience and fun for the whole family year-round. Come and tour the only underground gold mine in Breckenridge.

It was well known during its 100-year reign for rich gold and silver production, as well as later for high-grade lead and zinc used during WWI and WWII. The ore brought out of this mine and other Rocky Mountain mines helped form the West and prosperity to the U.S. The Country Boy Mine preserves and showcases this important part of Colorado’s history.
