DESTINATION

Kimberley

Built on the slopes of Sullivan and North Star hills, Kimberley is one of Canada's highest cities. It is perhaps best known as the site of the Sullivan Mine, one of the world's largest underground silver, lead and zinc mines. The mine closed in 2001 after 92 years of production, yielding more than $20 billion in ore.

In keeping with the Bavarian theme, the city presents the Kimberley Old Time Accordion Championships for a week each year in early July.
