Gold Prospector’s Starter Pack

An introduction to the secrets of gold panning: a guided tour, gold panning, and museum ticket all in one package!

On the tour, our guide will introduce you to the gold rush on the Ivalojoki River, the lives of gold prospectors, and lifechanging gold discoveries. In the Mineral exhibition, you will learn about the cosmic origins of gold, and at the end, you will get to pan for gold yourself at Gold Museum’s indoor pool. Found gold and gemstones are yours to keep!
