Questions about animations
  • Are pets allowed in the park and in the caves?
    • Pets are allowed in the park provided that their owners keep them on a leash, ensure the tranquility of visitors (barking) and the rules of cleanliness (excrement).


    • For the visit of the caves, only pets that can be carried throughout the visit are authorized.

  • How to reserve tickets for a departure to visit the caves?


    • When purchasing your tickets on our website, you will be able to select the time at which you wish to take the guided tour.


    • You will thus have the certainty that tickets will be reserved for you on the chosen departure.


    • When you arrive on our site, present yourself at reception no later than 15 minutes before departure with your tickets. If you buy your tickets on the spot, you will have the possibility of choosing your time of visit of the caves according to the remaining availability.

  • 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.
