In the meantime, you can step into the world of dinosaurs as you walk down The World of Dinosaur Roar Discovery Trail. This incredible adventure takes you through a Jurassic jungle, where you will encounter life-sized dinosaur models hidden in the undergrowth. Feel the excitement as you come face to face with the towering T-Rex, the majestic Triceratops, and the dignified Diplodocus. The trail aims to ignite your imagination and transport you back in time to when these magnificent creatures roamed the Earth.
