    • Along the Bunting, step back in time for a walk of about 1 hour. This walk will take you back to the time of prehistoric men on the privileged area of ​​La Roche Courbon, in the middle of a wild and unspoiled nature. You will discover reconstituted camps of Homo Erectus (Héhé camp), Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens (Osapi camp, Ramého camp). Imagine making a fire with Neanderthals to meet in the caves!

      At each camp, as well as in the caves, informative panels present the evolution of prehistoric men in our territory, from the arrival of Homo Erectus until the beginning of the Iron Age. Information concerning botany is also visible.

      Ti’Silex offers puzzles during the course. A playbook helps children follow him in his adventures throughout the ride. We also offer a printed guide with additional information to complete your visit.


      Live a moment out of time!

      Warning: bring shoes suitable for walking (hiking type path)

    Very good tour inside. I love how the owners brought it back to life, by filling it with furniture from about the same period. The kitchen is amazing with the roasting roller. The terracotta floor is magnificent, totally fall in love with it. Gardens - spacious and well mannered
