Located just to the north-west of the attractive old village of La Roque d'Antheron, the Park of Giant Labyrinths extends over 4 hectares / 10 acres and has 6 km / 3.7 miles of paths.

Open all year round, two mazes are organised around themes which change regularly: recent ones have included an ecological trail inspired by the fable of the grasshopper and the ant and a treasure hunt for "precious stones". Children are given a colourful worksheet to guide them along these trails.

A third labyrinth is a maze in maize, literally: it's in a field of tall green sweetcorn and open during the summer only (July to September).

The park isn't just about the labyrinths, though. It has a number of other attractions - greatly expanded in the last couple of years - designed to appeal to a good range of age-groups.

These include a bouncy castle, a trampoline, a go-cart racetrack, ziplines and a boules court. A nursery sells shrubs and plants and kids get a small gift on departure.

There is a shaded picnic area and a large car-park.
