Monsters & Myths Trail at Dynamic Earth

Embark on the Monsters & Myths Trail – a thrilling journey where legendary creatures come to life. Discover the real creatures that inspired tales of the Loch Ness Monster, vampires, unicorns, and more.

On arrival at Dynamic Earth you’ll receive your very own Trail Passport: your guide to discovering the legends hidden within our immersive galleries.

As you uncover the myths and monsters, you will discover the real creatures that shaped the stories we know and love today. Uncover different legends: from the shadowy waters of Loch Ness and its famous monster, to Halloween favourites like vampires and zombies.

With each myth you uncover, you’ll collect stamps in your Trail Passport and try out some interactive hands-on science activities- bringing the legends to life with your own discoveries.

Once you’ve completed your trail, head to our shop and collect your very own fossil detective set to take home – perfect for budding myth-busters and curious minds alike!

Experience the thrill of legends and the wonder of science in one unforgettable adventure.
