Saturday 19th April – 9am – 3pm
Bath Road, Exmouth aka Squirrel Path or Dinosaur Canyon EX8 2AZ
Exmouth Dinosaurs and Exmouth Town Council are bringing a day of free Dinosaur fun to Exmouth on Easter weekend.
Exmouth has a well-loved Dinosaur Trail through the town, featuring models, murals and etchings. Thousands of children (and adults!) enjoy this free trail every year.
This year there are some brand new additions to the trail, and a new updated map. To celebrate these new dinosaurs – including a 6 foot pterodactyl suspended from a tree! – there will be a day of free dinosaur and geology activities and trails.
Exmouth Dinosaur Trail is managed and maintained by volunteers with support from Exmouth Town Council, to inspire love for our ancient earth and its bygone inhabitants.
Join us for a dino-mite day in Exmouth, easily accessible by train, bus or bike.
