Flume Mining

"We highly recommend Gem Mountain!"

-TripAdvisor Reviewer, April 2019

Voted one of the top places to go gem mining in the Nation, Gem Mountain offers guaranteed family fun and a relaxing atmosphere while you mine at the flume!

Find your own gems right from the mines themselves! Get ready to get dirty as you dig in the mines as the miners did back then.
