Cave City, Kentucky: Dinosaur World

Well-done dino replicas line a wooded trail. Like being in Jurassic Park, but without the death and mayhem. Free Stegosaurus out front.

Although we felt like this was over-priced, our 7 year old son was in hog ... er... Dinosaur heaven! It was hot while we were there but the wooded area on the self-guided tour gave a nice, long break from the sun.

The fossil dig was a hoot. The kids really thought they were digging up some serious treasures! This unplanned stop was the highlight of our day today!

My family and I take many trips south to visit family in Alabama. Right off I-65 in Cave City, KY, you will see a giant T-rex on the side of the interstate. Dinosaur World won't take long. It has a trail that winds along the forest, showing various life-sized dinosaurs along the way. It has a dino dig for the kids as well as a playground.

It's an outdoor museum of life sized prehistoric animals.

The gift shop's leg entrance and other fixtures may look familiar to the well-traveled dino park fan. Dinosaur World is the sister attraction of the nearly identical Dinosaur World in Plant City, Florida. Watch for this franchise opening in a Tourism Mecca near you!
