The Mill Canyon Dinosaur Tracksite is a unique attraction located not far off Highway 191, between Moab and Interstate 70. It is accessed by an easy 1/4 mile hike.

The tracksite contains an amazing amount of fossilized tracks. More than 200 individual tracks have been found here. Tracks are from the Early Cretaceous time period and include tracks from long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs, carnivorous dinosaurs and even crocodiles.

After the short stroll from the parking lot you’ll arrive at the tracksite. A boardwalk leads around the area so that visitors can view the tracks without disturbing them.

Informative plaques tell about many of the tracks and which dinosaurs made them.

Be sure to stop by the Mill Canyon Dinosaur Tracksite the next time you are in the area!
