Eccles Dinosaur Park

Eccles Dinosaur Park

...an exciting collection of creatures from prehistoric crawlers, to predators and even flying reptiles.

Welcome to the George S. Eccles Dinosaur Park, the natural history-based museum located in Ogden, Utah.

This highly educational and entertaining museum experience allows your group to explore over 100 full-sized dinosaur replicas within a 5-acre park, featuring everything from the largest articulated Barosaurus spine in the world to a Harpactognathus holotype. The sculptures are based on actual fossils skeletons, each 'brought to life by robotics, artistic details, and a state of the art sound system'.

Inside the museum, you will find several hands-on activities and labs, as well as several school field trip options.  Pre-K/K level groups will be able to enjoy a 30-minute fossil presentation, craft time, and story, 1st/2nd-grade-level groups will take part in a 45-minute hands-on fossil presentation, and 3rd graders and older will take part in a hands-on paleontology presentation lasting 45 minutes.

You will also have the chance to explore the Stewart Paleontology Museum, Ogden Natural History Museum, and extension of the University of Utah's Paleontology Lab.
