The town became reknowned for gold mining in the 1860's and with the many tourist attractions - you can relieve the excitement of gold fever.  There is a fossicking area available and many handy locals who can give you tips on where you might strike it rich.

In 1916 there was a great flood which resulted in the town relocating to a higher site.  The legacy of the flood remains with a piano decorating one of the trees in the devastation areas.
