Dinosaur Ridge - Elevating Denver

Just 20 minutes west of Denver is an outdoor museum opened year round and home to fossils from when dinosaurs ruled the earth. Dinosaur Ridge is a fun and fascinating outdoor place for kids of all ages to explore. Located at the base of the Dakota Hogback, just west of the C-470/Alameda exit, the Dinosaur Ridge Trail is a paved section of West Alameda Parkway. It is open to pedestrians, bicyclists, and hikers, and closed to public motorized traffic. The site is world-famous for its Cretaceous Period tracks and Jurassic Period bones and remarkable geologic features. More than 15 fossil and geologic sites are marked by interpretive signage, and can be accessed by foot, bike, or guided bus tour, there is nothing in the world like it. #dinosaurridge #dinoridge Visit: dinoridge.org Denver 8 is the award-winning municipal access television station for the City and County of Denver, Colorado government.
