Canada has its share of dinosaur experiences, and for those looking for a unique adventure this summer, dinosaur hunting is it.
From the Badlands in Alberta to the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, here are the five best places for a dinosaur experience.
Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta
Alberta’s Dinosaur Provincial Park offers an amazing experience in a section of the badlands that is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can hike through the park, take an interpretive tour, or drive along a scenic route through the park. About 150 complete dinosaur skeletons and over 50 dinosaur species have been
discovered in the area. Visitors can also stay right on the site with 120 RV and tent campsites open in the park, but it’s vital to book early as they fill up quickly.
Fundy Geological Museum, Nova Scotia
On the coast of Nova Scotia, the
Fundy Geological Museum offers a chance to get close to some of the oldest dinosaur bones in Canada, which have been found along the sea cliffs of the shore. It also includes a
specimen of the world’s smallest dinosaur prints, found in 1984, the Jurassic crocodile, and other dinosaur fossils found locally. Visitors can also explore the area on horseback and search for fossils with a museum expert, or sign up for a family experience such as being paleontologists for a day.
