Fancy setting off on a treasure hunt? From Bessans or Bonneval, embark
on a quest for ancient rock paintings and uncover the mysteries hidden
on the Rocher du Château. A prehistoric adventure that'll take you back
in time and whet your curiosity.
Take just a few more steps along the Chemin du Petit Bonheur to embark
on a journey back in time to the prehistoric era.
As you amble down by the Arc river, to the peaceful hum of the bees and
the babbling of the languid stream, your thoughts start to wander.
As soon as you leave the banks of the river, the time machine starts up.
It drops you in front of the Rocher du Château and its rock paintings. How
many deer can you count?
