An award-winning National Historic Site located on the Sea to Sky Highway between Vancouver and Squamish, built on a former copper mine. Visitors can board a mine train for a guided underground tour, pan for gold, and experience the multi-sensory BOOM! show inside the historic Mill No. 3. A compelling stop for touring cyclists riding the Sea to Sky corridor, with an on-site cafe (Chatterbox Cafe) to refuel.
