All the prehistoric workshops

With family or friends, experience prehistory

IN ADDITION TO THE CAVES TOUR, PARTICIPATE IN THE PREHISTORIC WORKSHOPS ( starts at 11H) AND PERPETUATE THE GESTURES OF OUR ANCESTORS

If you choose our combined ticket (cave tour and access to prehistoric workshops) and you want to have time to enjoy workshops, we advise you to come before 11H/11h30.

 Booking your ticket online means that there will be space for you in the park.

However, workshops can't be booked individually.

Questions about animations
  • How does the tale visit go?


    • It takes place every Sunday at 1 p.m. and to participate you just need to book online minimum 24 hours in advance. It takes an average of 1.15 hours to visit

  • Should we book the prehistoric workshops ?


    • Prehistoric workshops cannot be booked individually. Each workshop is limited to approximately 30 persons. It is therefore not necessary to book because there are many timetables available for each workshop. The sooner you arrive the better you can enjoy our activities ;-)


    • Depending on the crowds in the park, we add an animator and therefore activities.


    • You can however make your reservation for the guided tour of the caves organized at fixed times (see timetables according to the calendar)


    • Our recommendation: before your arrival, organize your day according to the times indicated on our calendar page.

  • Is it possible to conduct the prehistoric workshops?


    • Most of the prehistoric workshops are distant from 3 to 5 minutes walking. 

    There is many paths through the park. The schedules take into account movements between 2 nearby activities. The 2 workshops furthest from each other are “pottery” and “fire” but you will not take more than 5 minutes by walking slowly with a young child.
