George S. Eccles Dinosaur Park551

Dinosaur Park is a eight-acre outdoor museum designed to take visitors back to a time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. The adventure starts at the Elizabeth Dee Shaw Stewart Museum, which features some of the latest archaeological finds from Utah and around the world and hands-on exhibits from across the country. At the back of the museum, you can stop at the laboratory to watch technicians preparing real dinosaur bones for exhibit.

Inside the park, paved pathways that take visitors to over a hundred life-size replicas of dinosaurs: the fierce T. Rex, the massive Stegasaurus, or the speedy Velociraptor. The magnet for kids is the fantasy land playground, where parents get a break from walking while the kids have fun playing, climbing, and sliding down different species of dinosaurs.

The Dinosaur Park can host family reunions and birthday parties. Prices start at $99 for as many as 10 participants, including eight children and two adults.

Family passes are available, offering pass holders admission to Dinosaur Park for one year from date of purchase, discounts of 10% at gift shop and parties, as well as 25% off of special programs. The Dinosaur Park reciprocates with Tracy Aviary in Salt Lake City, so pass holders from either venue can visit the other venue for free - don't forget to bring the pass card and a valid ID.
