About
The Royal Tyrrell Museum sits on North Dinosaur Trail in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada, at 1500 N Dinosaur Trail. It is dedicated to dinosaurs and fossils, and it makes a natural stop for anyone curious about the prehistoric world, families with children, and visitors already exploring the Drumheller area.
What to expect
The museum's collections centre on dinosaurs and fossils, presented through interactive exhibits that invite visitors to engage with the material rather than only look at it. Because the displays are hands-on in places, the visit suits both quiet browsers and those who like to experiment.
Facilities
- Interactive exhibits that encourage active exploration of dinosaurs and fossils
- A cafeteria for a break between galleries
- A gift shop for souvenirs and books related to the collections
Plan enough time to move through the exhibits at an unhurried pace, and allow for a meal or a rest if you are visiting with children.
The area around it
