The Dinosaur Museum turns a drive toward the central Black Hills into a close encounter with the prehistoric world.
A prehistoric family stop
Life-size dinosaur displays and fossil-focused exhibits introduce animals from the Mesozoic era in a format designed for curious visitors of many ages.
More ways to explore
Scavenger hunts, hands-on activities and fossil-themed experiences give families more to do than simply walk past displays. The attraction also welcomes dogs, making it easier to include in a road-trip day.
