Geology Walk & Scavenger Hunt - February 21st & 22nd
Geology Walk and Scavenger Hunt at the Crystal Festival
Join us for an immersive, hands-on geology adventure at the Crystal Festival in Layton on February 21st and 22nd, 2026. The Geology Walk and Scavenger Hunt is a self-guided experience designed for kids, families, and curious minds of all ages. You may participate on either day at any time between 10 AM and 8 PM, allowing you to explore at your own pace and stay as long as you like.
During the Geology Walk and Scavenger Hunt, each participant receives a container and a map to guide them through the show. Along the way, you will collect more than 15 rocks, minerals, fossils, gemstones, and other geological treasures. As you move through the event, you will encounter learning stations, hands-on activities, and dozens of incredible vendors, all while building a take-home collection that turns learning into a lasting memory.
Classes, workshops, and kids’ activities take place throughout the entire show, making it easy to play, learn, and explore all day or return for a second day. Be sure to visit our Educational Hall, where you can discover interactive displays, attend classes and workshops, and connect with experts from across the geology and crystal community.
This free, family-friendly show is packed with reasons to stay the whole weekend. Meet mine owners, authors, lapidary artists, crystal healers, readers, and more. Enjoy hands-on displays, scout presentations, rock-related date nights, and activities designed to spark curiosity and excitement for geology in learners of every age.
