Parque dos Dinossauros da Lourinhã

Dino Parque is a dinosaur theme park featuring roughly 200 life-size models positioned along six different walking paths. Each route showcases creatures from distinct geological periods, illustrating the diversity of prehistoric life.

The site was chosen because of major fossil discoveries in the surrounding area that attracted scientific attention decades ago. The park was later established to bring those paleontological findings to the attention of visitors.

The park gets its name from the dinosaur discoveries in this region and was designed to celebrate those findings with the local community. The displays connect children and families to the ancient life that once inhabited these lands.

The park is easily accessible by car and situated near major regional roads. Plan to spend several hours walking the six paths at a comfortable pace and wear appropriate footwear for outdoor terrain.

The park offers hands-on learning experiences where visitors can practice excavation techniques and examine fossil samples under expert guidance. This connection to real paleontological work makes the visit more than just observing models.
