Looking for fun school holiday activities in Bathurst?

Dust off your boots, gather the kids, and step back into the gold rush days with our public tours at Bathurst Goldfields!

Bring the family along for an afternoon of stories, history, and a little bit of adventure as you wander through our goldfields re-enactment village.

The kids will be talking about it for days.
