In the footsteps of dinosaurs
Find out with the family how these prehistoric giants lived

Since the first dinosaur remains were found in the nineteenth century, people have been curious to learn about the time when these giant reptiles roamed the planet. Each new discovery fires the imagination of the world, and even a single footprint can reveal a glimpse of the world that was lost 65 million years ago as Man uses his ingenuity to create reconstructions from a fragile framework of fossils and skeletons. There are traces of dinosaurs all around Spain, and a number of trails and museums that trace the prints left by these wonderful animals during their hundreds of millions of years of occupancy. Many of these locations are nominated as World Heritage Sites. Visit them and discover the fascinating - and real - world of dinosaurs.
