Footprints of Dinosaurs, Prehistoric trace fossil site near Kalkveld, Namibia.

Footprints of Dinosaurs consists of two groups of fossilised three-toed footprints at the foot of the Klein Etjo in north-west Namibia, near the settlement of Kalkfeld. The tracks were left in soft sediment about 190 million years ago. The group with the larger prints can be followed for over 20 metres.

The tracks were left about 190 million years ago, in the Lower Jurassic, in soft sediment at the foot of the Klein Etjo. They were declared a national monument of Namibia in 1951, which placed the two track groups under state protection. The farm Otjihaenamaparero now manages the land where they lie.

The site lies on the guest farm Otjihaenamaparero, and the tracks are reached through farm land near the Klein Etjo hill, close to Kalkfeld. The name Otjihaenamaparero is Herero. The two track groups were left in soft sediment by three-toed animals of different sizes, and the larger set can be followed for over 20 metres.

The site is located on a farmstead and charges an entrance fee, with camping and accommodation options available. Visitors should ask locally about which facilities are available and how to best reach the tracks.

The larger trackway can be followed for over 20 metres, while the second set records smaller three-toed animals. The site lies at the foot of the Klein-Etjo and is reached through the Otjihaenamaparero guest farm, which owns the land around the protected tracks.
