Dinosaur Discovery Days are an opportunity to view the tracks, bones, and other spectacular examples of geology and paleontology along Dinosaur Ridge with volunteer guides and without the distraction of passing traffic.

These free days run from 10:00am to 2:30pm. During that time, West Alameda Parkway over the Ridge will be closed to vehicular traffic and guides will give demonstrations and answer questions at many of the interpretive stops along the Ridge.  No reservations are necessary.

Admission to the program and the Visitor Center is free.  Shuttle bus transportation (optional) along the Ridge is $2.00 per person.  Buses pick passengers up on the east side of the Ridge approximately every 15 minutes.

Thank You! to all our sponsors and everyone who make each DD day so successful each year.
