Parque Cretácico & Cal Orck'o
Parque Cretácico
One of the world's largest dinosaur track walls, with more than 5,000 footprints on a nearly vertical limestone face.
Cal Orcko was once a limestone quarry for a cement plant. In 1994, workers discovered that the rock walls were covered with footprints of dinosaurs from the late Cretaceous. To date, about a dozen dinosaur species and thousands of prints have been identified. The park has viewing platforms and life-size dinosaur models. At certain times, guided tours take visitors to the foot of the wall for a close look at the footprints. Hard hats are required. Admission is about 30 bolivianos. The park is about 5 km from the city center, and you can reach it by round trip on the city's 'Dino Truck' dinosaur bus.
