Dinosaur Park on Skyline Drive has been a Rapid City landmark since the 1930s, when life-size concrete dinosaurs were built on the ridge as a Depression-era project.
Kids love posing with the big dinosaurs, and the hilltop looks out over the city. It only takes a short while, so it fits easily around other Rapid City stops.
