Dinosaur Valley Details
With over 100 million years of history, it's easy to see why this place is considered a National Natural Landmark. It's home to a trail of footprints that were left by elephant-like Sauropods and three-toed Theropods. There are five different track sites where you can marvel at the footprints left by these prehistoric creatures. However, most of the tracks are located on the bed of the Paluxy River, which means it can be covered with water, sand, or mud during certain times of the year.
