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
  • 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.

  • Are the workshops canceled in case of rain ?
    • No, because all activities can be done under cover, with the exception of hunting with a spear workshop, but it is rare that the rain falls continuously... and nothing stops the valiant hunters!

  • 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
