Start learning to pan with the Garrett Gold Panning Kit. It brings together two pans, a classifier and recovery accessories for preparing your material, washing it down and collecting your finds.

From gravel to the final clean-up

Use the 14-inch Gold Trap pan for general panning and the smaller 10-inch Backpacker pan for smaller samples or finishing. The classifier separates larger material before panning. Green pan surfaces provide contrast when looking for gold, while the moulded riffles help hold heavier material as you wash away lighter sediment.

What is included?

• 14-inch Garrett Gold Trap pan
• 14-inch Garrett Sifter/Classifier
• 10-inch Garrett Backpacker pan
• Gold Guzzler snuffer bottle for collecting small gold particles
• Two gold storage vials

Standard or Deluxe?

Choose this kit for a straightforward starting setup. The Garrett Deluxe Gold Panning Kit adds a 15-inch SuperSluice pan and additional accessories for a wider range of panning tasks.

Getting started

Work with manageable amounts of material and practise a gentle washing action. Recovery depends on your technique and the material being panned; riffles help retain gold but cannot prevent every loss.
