Prehistoric nature reserve planned for London Resort

The London Resort has revealed details of a prehistoric nature reserve with roaming dinosaurs, two rollercoasters, rides, interactive dig sites and a dining experience.  

Set in the north west corner of the resort, Base Camp will include a large multi-media live stage show experience, an advanced simulator attraction, immersive fine dining and an “active dig site” where younger palaeontologists can discover dinosaurs as they climb, dig and tunnel their way across the excavation site. 

“Base Camp’s design is based on a philosophy of what an actual, modern day, prehistorical nature reserve might look like,” said PY Gerbeau, CEO of London Resort Company Holdings. 

“There will be thrills, spills and high energy rides combined with opportunities to get up close and personal with some of the most amazing creatures ever to walk the earth. However, unlike popular films that depict dinosaurs as villains, things don’t always go terribly wrong here. We are building a land of preservation and celebration of dinosaurs.”

Located within as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the resort aims to be a leader in sustainability and has already committed to spending around £150m on remediation, habitat enhancement and providing around eight miles of footpaths and public rights of way. 

“We are on track to create a beacon of world class entertainment and experiences within a world leading sustainable environment,” said Gerbeau.
