Dinosaur Valley State ParkWalk in real dinosaur tracks pressed deep into the Paluxy River. Bring the kids—or the kid in you—and see the footprints that made Glen Rose the Dinosaur Capital of Texas.Fossil Rim Wildlife CenterDrive through 1,800 acres of open countryside where giraffes lean in for a snack and zebras stroll across your path. It’s Africa meets the Texas Hill Country, and somehow, it just works.Dinosaur WorldStep into a forest filled with life-size dinosaurs. Kids can dig for fossils, pan for gems, and see more than 150 creatures that once ruled the earth.Dinosaur Tracks Discovery SitesFollow the Paluxy River to see the famous tracks that started it all. These are no replicas. These are the real deal.Paluxy River AdventuresKayak, tube, or wade through the clear shallows that wind through town. Cool off under the sun and let the current set your pace.Nature Trails &amp; Wildlife DrivesTake a scenic drive or hike one of the shaded trails around Glen Rose. The views stretch wide, the air smells like cedar, and the quiet is a sound you’ll want to keep.Barnard’s Mill &amp; Art MuseumExplore Glen Rose’s oldest standing structure, now home to a respected regional art museum. You’ll see historic architecture, rotating exhibits, and work from celebrated Texas artists in a quiet, walkable setting.Creation Evidence Museum of TexasExplore a provocative museum near Glen Rose that presents exhibits arguing for a young-earth view: dinosaur footprints, human fossil finds, a Noah’s Ark replica, ancient scrolls and more — all aimed at showing “scientific evidence for creation.”Squaw Valley Golf CoursePlay 36 holes of scenic golf just outside Glen Rose on two courses — Apache Links and Comanche Lakes.
