The Nelson Ghost Town traces its origins back to the late 19th century, when prospectors first discovered the area’s rich gold deposits.

For nearly a century, the town flourished, yielding over $500 million in ore. Mining operations were the lifeblood of the community, with the area’s mines producing an abundance of gold and other precious metals.

As the gold rush waned and mining operations scaled down, the town’s population dwindled, and it eventually became the ghost town that visitors can explore today.
