Dinosaur Walk Museum
A Walk with Dinosaurs!
We went to the Dinosaur Walk Museum last year with some friends and their pre-teen children. It turned out their children really loved dinosaurs and had made prior plans to see the museum on their next trip to Pigeon Forge. When visiting, I think one has to take into account that this is a museum exhibit. Knowing such, I personally enjoyed what I saw and learned while on our walk among the dinosaurs.
I have to say that they have very life-like dinosaurs throughout the exhibit. As you will learn, the museum takes great care in building the most realistic re-creations possible from prehistoric times. What you will see are life size dinosaur sculptures. They create the models by using actual fossils and build a wooden skeleton that is coated with clay and then sculpted to the actual size they were when they roamed the earth.
The Dinosaur Walk Museum is said to be one of the world’s largest collections of prehistoric animals in the United States. I would suggest that you take your time and don’t rush, to get the most out of this exhibit. They have plaques by each display with an excellent explanation about each dinosaur. They also have a movie presentation with educational films to bring the dinosaur to life. The children in our group also enjoyed participating in a dinosaur fossil dig.
It was really interesting to see what it would be like to be around dinosaurs that were life size actual replicas. This is definitely a bring the camera type of activity, so don’t forget it. If you really take your time it could take you up to two hours for this exhibit, but I would guess the average group would pass through here in 30-45 minutes. Don’t forget to check out some of the attraction magazines to find discounted tickets.
