Romans, Vikings, Druids and dolphins. Medieval crafts and white-knuckle rides. Charging chariots and the ancient art of sliding. With five historical worlds in one and fearless storybook warriors as your guides, it’s a truly French theme park, and the most Gaulish in the world.
Walk through the Gallic forest or take a ride on Romanus et Rapidus to meet Caesar’s Centurions in The Roman Empire. Travel to Mount Olympus and bow to Zeus, watch a show at the dolphinarium or ride the highest wooden rollercoaster in Europe. Test your bravery as you speed through the land of the Vikings. Track the continuity of Gallic culture in the arts, crafts and performances of the Middle Ages. Find out about the fearsome Trojan wars, the renovation of Notre Dame de Paris and learn how to speak to a Gaul in French.
Around 20 miles from Paris, surrounded by thick forest, Parc Asterix is a short drive from STS accommodation and can be enjoyed as a daytrip or part of a combined experience in France. This is a superb opportunity to practice French language and investigate a host of historical themes in an exciting and unusual setting. Parc Asterix offers a fulfilling and extensive educational experience for all students and will appeal particularly to younger pupils.
