The fire and the development of Prehistoric Man are inseparable. The domestication of fire dates back about 450,000 years.
An activity for everyone which consists in demonstrating by gestures, the old techniques of starting a fire by friction but especially by percussion.
At the end of the workshop, those who wish (and from 6 years old) can test the fire techniques.

Is it possible to do the workshops with a stroller ?
The Park is relatively flat and access between the workshops is by dirt or grassy paths. Pedestrian access to reach the park is not possible by stroller. You must ask the reception for the best way to reach the park (small train route when it is not running).
Same time as for users of the trail that is not passable by stroller (stairs)

What is the age recommended for carrying out the workshops ?
We have indicated the recommended age for each activity, but obviously everything depends on the agility and precocity of each child.

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.
