Where Do The Giants Roam?


Moab Giants Dinosaur Park is located just north of Moab, Utah, along U.S. Highway 191, nestled at the intersection of ancient history and epic red rock scenery. Set against the backdrop of Arches National Park and the towering cliffs of the Moab Fault, the park offers panoramic views of the surrounding mesas and desert landscape.


It sits near the turnoff to Canyonlands National Park’s Island in the Sky district and is just minutes from the Colorado River and the popular Klondike Bluffs biking and hiking trails. The area is rich in real dinosaur tracks, making it the perfect place for a museum that blends science with outdoor adventure.

"This Adult Loved Moab Giants!"

★★★★★


I thought it would be more for kids but this adult loved it. Half-mile dino trackway from real footprints + informative museum — well worth the price.

Moab Giants Museum & Park Highlights


Life-size T-Rex appears to be walking the trails with the sun setting behind it.

Dinosaurs Without Walls

It's strange to look at life-like creatures that are actually as old as the dirt you walk on... Enjoy the Dinosaur Trail with all natural lighting and full-size dinosaurs that make for great photos with the whole family.

Interactive for the Kid in You

Everyone had a favorite dinosaur as a kid. Can you remember which one was yours? Do you know which one is your kid's favorite? The 5-D Aquarium might introduce some new ones to consider!

Dinosaur bones appear in the sand with children's digging tools scattered nearby.

Playfully Instructive

In Moab, digging for dinosaur bones doesn't seem nearly as pretend as in other places! Dig it Out, Paleo Camp and Museum displays help you understand what you are seeing in Moab.

Moab: The Original Jurassic Park

Okay, so the original movie in 1995 wasn't filmed in Moab, but all the places it was filmed will look like Moab someday. Give it an epoch or two. Utahraptor, Moabasaurus, an Iguandon named after a local Moabian rock-hound that discovered it laying there... You gotta give Moab (and Moab Giants Park) some jurassic sized props for its dino DNA. You know, that "velociraptor" scene in the original movie? Yeah, totally a pair of trouble-making Utahraptors, discovered in Arches National Park in 1991.
