“with real dinosaur tracks”
If you like dinosaurs, you'll love our 200 million-year-old fossil trackway, interactive exhibits and the chance to cast your own dinosaur footprint to take home. There is a daily admission fee at Dinosaur State Park. Adults ages 13 and up are $6 youth ages 6 - 12 are $2 and children under 6 are free.
