Dinosaur Tracks in Leander

Dinosaur Tracks in Leander is a unique attraction featuring real dinosaur footprints embedded in the river bed. The tracks are approximately half a mile west of the Hwy 183 bridge that crosses the South Fork of the San Gabriel River. Visitors can hike along the river bed to find the tracks, which include 3-toed prints believed to belong to a carnivorous dinosaur and round circular tracks thought to belong to a large herbivore. The area is not a maintained park, and visitors should be prepared for a hike and potential water crossings. The tracks are best visible when water levels are low, and visitors are advised to exercise caution and be mindful of the weather. The attraction is suitable for families, and kids can enjoy the adventure of searching for the dinosaur tracks, as well as exploring the surrounding river bed and potentially spotting wildlife like toads
