Get down to the dinos: Jurassic Adventure
Nestled in our backyard, Christchurch’s very own mini theme park awaits. Raptors, triceratops and a T-Rex roam on Opawa Road.
At Jurassic Adventure, you’re stepping back 65 million years, with a side of mini golf, a maze, and more. These life-size animatronic dinosaurs will enchant and captivate, and owner Aaron Keown says it’s all about inclusion for a limitlessly immersive and enjoyable experience in the Jurassic period, regardless of age or ability.
Purchasing tickets to the Raptor Run grants half-price entry to Jurassic Adventure’s 18-hole wheelchair accessible mini golf course. Easily fill a summer’s day, or coincide this dino-destination with an afternoon at the beach, and lunch in between. There’s nothing like it, and the activities on offer haven’t halted, with the T-Rex ride and Dino Dig available for blooming palaeontologists. Aaron, or Christchurch’s Walt Disney, is constantly cooking up new ideas for local families to enjoy.
If you have the whole family at your house this Christmas, or, if you’re the designated parent for your kids and all their friends, it requires little more than a quick roundup and a squash into the car.
Make a summer’s day of it at Jurassic Adventure,
239A Opawa Road.
