Dinosaur Trail in Allaire State Park, Wall (Monmouth County)


In Allaire State Park, visitors can find the work of Robin Ruggiero, a New Jersey-based artist who has been using these woods as both her canvas and medium since 2019. Ruggiero's work began with a series of huts and witchy symbols before expanding to include a colony of dinosaurs A tyrannosaurus rex first appeared, later joined by a triceratops, a pterodactyl feeing her offspring, and in October 2020, a stegosaurus. Each dinosaur is meticulously crafted within the park using pieces of downed trees, bones, branches, and leaves. With these pieces being made on location, the artist can often be found hard at work.
