Why you should go…

The Bachelor Syracuse Mine Tour takes visitors 1,800 feet inside Gold Hill on a mine train, 1,500 feet underground, to see where roughly 8 million dollars in gold and 90 million dollars in silver have been mined since 1884. Guides, many of them former miners, explain the mining process and equipment along the way. The site also has an operating blacksmith shop and gold panning for an extra fee, and is located about 3.5 miles north of downtown Ouray.
