Family activities in the Luberon
Your children's vacations
Splashing in the water, dabbling in ochre, following a great family treasure hunt or tracking down Roman monuments, there are so many fun and educational activities to do with the whole family in and around Apt.
The Luberon: a veritable playground for children
The Luberon offers families a multitude of fun and educational activities around Apt. From hikes in the forest to visits to educational farms, not forgetting pottery or picking workshops, young and old alike can have fun while discovering nature and the local heritage. An ideal destination for family vacations.
The small pool for little swimmers
The small pool at the Castel Luberon hotel offers an ideal space for families with young children, with an adapted depth and reinforced safety. Surrounded by deckchairs and Mediterranean vegetation, it invites you to relax in a peaceful setting. Its proximity to the main pool means that everyone can enjoy moments of conviviality in complete serenity.
Treasure hunts for children in Apt
A great treasure hunt to discover the town's history and have fun at the same time!
This is the ingenious idea developed by Intrigue dans la ville: set off as a family on the trail of a railroad saboteur. To do this, you'll need to learn all about the industries for which the region is famous: ochre, earthenware and candied fruit.
If you've enjoyed the game, try it again in Roussillon, Goult, or go for a multi-village storyline!
The mysteries of Ôhkra
Introduce your children to ochre making and painting. Ôhkra, the ochre eco-museum, offers an immersion into the world of colors. Discover the lives of former ochre workers and take part in on-site workshops.
It's the ideal way to introduce your children to the Sentier des Ocres.
The Riaille leisure park
Need to cool off? Apt's 10-hectare lake welcomes you all summer long, from 1pm to 7pm. Take a day trip and don't forget your snack. On site:
- two free swimming pools
- an inflatable structure on the water
- numerous water sports
- a skate park, picnic tables, solarium, etc.
Take your children on a tour of the past
Apt was founded at the request of Julius Caesar himself, in 45 BC. We're all familiar with the building talents of our Roman ancestors, and it's hardly surprising to come across a few vestiges along the Via Domitia, the ancient Roman road that crossed Gaul and the Luberon region in particular. We're sure these remains will arouse the curiosity and wonder of your children.
Around Apt, you'll find
- the Pont Julien
- the remains of the Gallo-Roman villa of Tourville
