Review & FAQ:
For a fascinating family day trip from Fort Worth, the Dinosaur Valley State Park is hard to beat. Here, on what was once the shore of an ocean, you can walk in the footsteps of giants along the bed of the Paluxi River. Depending on the time of year you visit, you will be able to find actual dinosaur tracks in the river-bed (it is advisable to phone the park before your visit to check track visibility during the rainy season). Besides searching for tracks the park offers many other activities including walking, hiking, swimming, biking, picnicking and geocaching. There are also some ranger-led activities to enjoy.
