‘Dino Dash’ is a chance for budding dinosaur enthusiasts, to get up close and personal with Raptors, T-Rex, Triceraptors and more!

A spokespeson said the new coaster was a chance to "travel back in time in a safari jeep carriage and soar to the skies before dashing under the tail and head of a Apatosaurus Dino! Sweep through the twists and turns avoiding the grasp of Raptors, but be aware of a bubbling swamp underneath waiting to explode!"

Meanwhile, Tayto Park will host the ultimate Easter egg hunt on Easter Sunday, 17th of April where kids can try and crack the secret code to discover Mr Tayto's hidden stash of chocolate Easter eggs dotted across the theme park and zoo!
