    I very much enjoyed visiting this park. That was about nine years ago, when I was in my ice-age- cave-art craze. Yes it is relatively small but it is pleasant and well organized with a good representation of some ice age fauna. It is also peaceful: there is none of the sweaty crush that you find at the larger and obvious sites. I liked the resource center and was inspired by the selection of books dealing with the ice age. I have a very good memory of the place.

    A nice small parc, that is worth an extra visit when you do lascaux! The peoplz are very friendly and there is a schedualwhere you can see when the animals are being fed, we could e.g. feed the deers appels, which was very fun. It's really worth the extra 4 on top of you lascaux ticket. Note: the drive is around 15 minutes though

    A park really for toddlers and young kids. It's a small place. Not many animals. Disappointed the 3D movie was not working. The entrance fee is quite expensive price. Good that the childten have certain animations and hands-on activities.
