Dedicated in 1995, Makoshika State Park's Visitor Center is the hub of the park's visitor services.  Information and assistance is available seven days a week to help direct visitors to recreational opportunities in the park, the local area, and statewide.  The visitor center has self-guided interpretive displays highlighting the three major time periods seen in the park and local area -- the time of the ancient inland sea, the age of dinosaurs, and the age of mammals, which includes evidence of the first humans in the area and the erosion that occurred to create the badlands topography for which the park is renowned.
