Travel Guide Bancroft

Bancroft is undoubtedly the capital of geological prospectors in Canada. Several companies sell or display more than 300 types of minerals and crystals very easily detectable in the region. On the scene, experts accompany explorers, hammers and excavators in search of jewels. As there are large quantities, beautiful discoveries are inevitable. At the beginning of August, the largest market and festival of semi-precious stones and minerals in Canada beats the city (Rockhound Gemboree). Get involved with the thousands of visitors who come and search, search and find! Visitors to car walks will enjoy rural roads in the region, where the remains of barns and stables of the pioneer era are found. The plates follow the canyons. For self-exploration, the local Chamber of Commerce provides itineraries, leading from deposit to deposit, in a forest and agricultural setting.www.bancroftdistrict.com
