Create your own stone bead and make your necklace !

Since prehistoric times, men have attached great importance to ornamentation. The first elements of ornamentation appears -80,000 years ago, but it is especially from the Upper Paleolithic (-40,000 years) that we find many remains of these adornments.

What were they used for? Beautify yourself? To stand out? Show membership in a group? Many hypotheses are still put forward today ...

During this activity, shape, drill, and rub with prehistoric tools your stone and make your prehistoric ornament.

Questions about animations
  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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.
