SHOOTING WITH SPEAR THROWER : Learn to hunt like our ancestors

SHOOTING WITH SPEAR THROWER : Learn to hunt like our ancestors



Prehistoric Men of course knew how to throw spears by hand ... but to better surprise the animals, with less risk and more power: they invented the spearthrower, a weapon which makes it possible to launch at double the distance by extending the lever of the arms.

An activity recommended from 5/6 years and for all audiences to learn how to use the spearthrower.

Go hunting armed with a spearthrowers and spears.

Tip: Remember to come early to fully enjoy your day between visiting the Caves and Prehistoric Workshops

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.

  • 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 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.
