GLEN ROSE,
TEXAS
Come and explore all that Glen Rose has to offer. We
are the “Dinosaur Capital” of Texas and the “Bluegrass
Capital of Texas.” There are so many things to see and
do here that you just might have to make a long trip or
several trips. You will be welcomed with open arms
any time you come and visit us. When it comes to di-
nosaurs, you definitely need to visit Dinosaur Valley
State Park. Not only is it a beautiful state park with
rivers, hiking, carriage rides, camping, and events, but
it also has actual dinosaur footprints of two different di-
nosaurs that lived in the area.
Right next to the Park is Dinosaur World,
with over 150 life-sized dinosaurs to
wander through and see just how big
these creatures were.
Just down the road is the Creation Evidence Museum
and it has a 25-foot replica of Noah’s Ark, an actual
working replica of the Gutenberg Press, Dinosaur
prints, Native American and Israeli artifacts, and a bios-
phere. Somervell County is also home to Fossil Rim
Wildlife Center. It was ranked #2 in the nation as the
best Wildlife Safari Park. You can drive through or take
a guided tour. You can also stay there in the Lodge or
the Safari Camp. Our Historic downtown area has over
thirty buildings on the National Historic Registry. Glen
Rose is a small town with quaint charm. Our unique
shops and restaurants are Mom and Pop establish-
ments that you don’t want to miss. There are antique
shops, boutiques, old fashioned soda shops, and so
much more that make our Courthouse Square a great
place to spend time. Our 36-hole golf course is ranked
among the top ten in the State of Texas. It is time to
come and Explore Glen Rose.
