Although it’s been more than 66 million years since dinosaurs roamed the earth, The Dinosaur Place™ at Nature’s Art Village is home to over 60 life-sized dinosaurs situated in a pristine 60 acre outdoor adventure park. Stroll through over a mile of dinosaur-filled nature trails wrapping around the scenic Raptor Bay Lake. Access the nature trails by walking under the belly of a life-sized brachiosaurus, an immense creature that measures 75 feet long and 40 feet tall. Enjoy the state-of-the-art playground with 5 unique jungle gyms including the one-of-a-kind SpaceNet, designed exclusively for The Dinosaur Place™. Get lost in a"MAZE"asaurus, a dinosaur-themed maze where families can explore together and find their way out! Exit the maze by sliding down the mouth of a giant T-Rex! For the brave, experience the animatronic dinosaur encounters in Cowl's Cave and Carnivore Cavern - they move, roar, and more! You also won’t want to miss watching the active volcano erupt every hour and the vast assortment of educational “touch and feel - what am I?” boxes situated throughout the nature trails.
