Calling all adventurers! This exhilarating lengthy hike takes you over steep slopes, through coulees, and deep into the badlands. Your guide will explain why this park is one of the richest sites in the world for late Cretaceous fossils. Whether it's the serenading songbirds, catching a glimpse of the hardy wildlife, or the fossils that excites you, our longest tour is aimed to satisfy your appetite (bring your own snacks though!).
