Revisit the Goldrush

Shantytown Heritage Park, a faithful recreation of 1860 goldrush town, is next to Goldfield Suites, a short walk away. The Woods Creek historical gold workings are also nearby with working gold mines visible from the road.

Borrow one of our gold pans and try your luck gold fossicking at Moonlight Gully, Nelson Creek, Goldsborough, or in our own stream.
