A breathtaking cliff: Visit Europe's largest troglodytic city in the Vallée de l'Homme!
This limestone giant (1 km long, 80 m high) faces the Vézère Valley. The cliff offers incredible rock shelters, occupied by man for 55,000 years. Take your family back in time on a guided tour of the troglodyte fort and town. Enjoy workshops (paleo music, fire lighting, discovery of local birds, flint knapping) and medieval chivalry in season. Summer evening walks (4 times a week).

Coup de cœur pour Pascal !!! Qui initie vos bambins à la musique paleo néolithiques… instruments en peau et ossements de bêtes. Génialissime, vraiment, ma fille et moi sommes sorties emballées de cet atelier et de la visite en général.
Sans oublier la remise d’un petit livret / guide pour enfant ! Même ma fille qui ne savait pas lire a pu suivre et se repérer via ce guide. Merci l’équipe !
