Operating nightly, year-round, this eerie one-mile walking tour is led by passionate local guides who know the stories behind the shopfronts, saloons, and Victorian buildings that define this former mining town.

Each location is carefully researched to reveal authentic history involving hardship, loss, and the colourful characters who helped shape this mountain community. While the tour does not enter buildings, guests will stand outside these legendary sites and experience the mysterious atmosphere that surrounds them.
