A dinosaur forest sounds like something from hundreds of millions of years ago, but what if we told you that such a fascinating prehistoric gem STILL exists in Colorado? It may sound like folklore, but it’s true, thanks to the one-of-a-kind Dinosaur Wild Walk:
Nestled away near Canon City, the Dinosaur Wild Walk is just that - a high plains desert forest trail that brings visitors face-to-face with larger-than-life dinosaurs.
TripAdvisor/Management
Boasting a smooth, easy-to-navigate dirt trail, the Dinosaur Wild Walk offers a fun prehistoric experience for everyone in the family thanks to the 16 life-sized, animatronic creatures that line the path.

Keep your eyes peeled, as you will see everything from a gigantic Tyrannosaurus Rex to the less-threatening (albeit equally large) Brontosaurus and Stegosaurus.

After walking along the trail, you will want to check out the rest of the Royal Gorge Dinosaur Experience, beginning with other outdoor attractions like the ropes course and kids’ dig.

In addition to these outdoor activities, the Royal Gorge Dinosaur Experience also boasts a 10,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art museum complete with interactive exhibits, intricate displays, and other hands-on attractions.
