Since 2015, the Museum of Culpeper History has partnered with the local Luck StoneQuarry to provide a public access day to view Culpeper’s famous dinosaur footprints! More than 215 million years ago, during the Triassic Period, giant beasts roamed the region that we call home today. Then, in 1989, evidence of their existence was discovered at the bottom of the quarry. Explore the largest quantity of dinosaur footprints discovered in North America on this special day.
Vehicle passes are available for hourly timed tours. Each pass provides entry to one vehicle and its occupants. Due to limited space in the parking area, vehicles must be no larger than a 15-passenger van. Each pass will also provide FREE admission to the Museum of Culpeper History in downtown Culpeper that same day.
This is a very popular program, and ticket availability is limited.
Vehicle passes are restricted due to the limited parking available at the dinosaur track site. On average, approximately 250 passes are available each day. The demand for tickets is great, and tickets sell out very quickly each year!
Passes for tours on Saturday, May 2, will be available for sale to the general public through our online ticketing platform on Saturday, April 4.
Museum members at the Family level or above will have early access to purchase passes for tours on Friday, May 1. To be eligible, memberships must be active by March 15, 2026.
