About Us
Go underground in the Sierra Silver Mine, and learn about the world of hard-rock silver mining in the richest mining district on earth!!! Let our retired miners entertain you with their fascinating mining experiences while they operate real mining machinery, and you learn how we get silver out of the mountain and into your life! On the way to and from the mine, enjoy a fun narrated tour of Wallace aboard our trolley while you get a glimpse into the colorful history of this 129-year-old mining camp.
Want more history? During July and August hop aboard The Ghost Town Trolley, and back in time as chautauqua characters from the past share their personal stories and the history of the Coeur d'Alene Mining District as you enjoy a trolley ride to the formerly booming ghost town of Burke, Idaho.
