Participatory prehistoric workshops in the park

A family day 1 hour from Lyon, Geneva or Annecy

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
  • Can I bring my picnic ? Is there a snacking point ?


    • We provide our visitors with several picnic areas, sheltered or not.


    • Our snack point "le Chasseur Cueilleur" offers snacks of local products as well as hot or cold drinks, to consume on the spot or to take away in the heart of the park.


    • The snack is open continuously throughout the day.

  • What outfit to wear for the workshops?


    • At "Grottes du Cerdon", you are "on the ground" as close as possible to nature.


    • Dress accordingly in clothing suitable for outdoor activities which can be more or less dirty, depending on your abilities.


    • Remember that you are leaving your era!

  • I purchase my tickets on the internet. Should I print them or can I present my reservation on my phone ?


    • To avoid any problem, it is preferable to have proof of purchase on your side with your tickets downloaded beforehand on your smartphone. 3 or 4G coverage on the site is not always easy. However if you forget, do not worry: we have the trace of your reservation at the reception of the site!


    • Remember to come to the site 15 minutes before the start of the reserved visit or activities.
