DINOSAURS have arrived in North Yorkshire - as part of a new £300,000 adventure golf course.
The 18-hole challenge by Lightwater Valey theme park, near Ripon, took five months to build and is the only one of its kind in Yorkshire.
Jurassic Adventure Golf features giant animatronic T-rex, triceratops and diplodocus, along with a large brachiosaurus creating an interactive experience suitable for all ages.
Theme park general manager Mark Bainbridge said: “This family attraction is a real boost to our offer and it’s suitable for experienced golfers and for people who’ve never picked up a putter before.
“Golfers will have to avoid the dinosaurs’ swishing tails as they negotiate their way round the course.”
The Jurassic Adventure Golf course – a separate attraction to the theme park - is open all year round.
