The Prehistoric Forest offers an imitation volcano with a 35 foot waterfall. The volcano will shake and smoke. The tour of the 10 acre natural forest offers a variety of surprises on the way such as replica dinosaur nests complete with eggs and dinosaur bones as well. The park offers life size replicas of many dinosaurs such as the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops and also a variety of living animals because the park is natural. Finally visitors will be offered the opportunity to participate in their own dig; uncovering bones, fossils, and footprints. Mystery Hill is also part of the same park and has some very unique features of its own. Visitors can witness water running up hill, a pendulum that will only swing to the south, and a ball that rolls up hill and will not roll back down. At the vortex of the hill visitors sense of balance may be pushed to the limit as most people will seemingly change height right before ones eyes. The park also offers a girt shop, picnic tables in the woods, and water balloon cages to provide an escape from the heat.
