We hiked all the trails offered at the dinosaur quarry. The Rock Walk hike is a 1.5 mile loop out into the flats of the quarry. They have a self-guided tour pamphlet identifying a number of points of interest. Our favorite was the excavated knoll where you can still find lots of stegosaurus bone shards lying all over the ground. The uphill hike to Raptor Point gives you a great view of the visitor's center and the landscape of the vast quarry. The two mile Rim Walk is great too.
