Dive into the heart of the Middle Ages in a battle of knights ready to do anything to defeat the enemy, flee the rebels who besiege and burn the castle, sail the oceans of the globe alongside an officer of the Royal Navy of Louis XIV, fly over the most emblematic places of Provence on the back of an eagle, get lost in the giant labyrinth, find the stolen jewels of Pauline Borghese in an original treasure hunt, dream in front of the night shows in the castle gardens... At the Rocher Mistral park, the settings, music and ultra-modern technologies allow an immersion for the whole family that you will remember forever!
In 2023, Rocher Mistral is adding magic to magic with several new features, including a dazzling night-time show dedicated to Napoleon. "Napoleon: the Eagle and the Muse" is a ground-breaking sound and light show which, from the gardens of the castle, in the heart of the night, will take you on a journey in the footsteps of the French Emperor. Lasers, video mapping, water games and music will inevitably transport you to a universe you never imagined. This year, the leisure park is also inaugurating its giant labyrinth, to the delight of children, who will be able to get lost in the maze of this mysterious space for as long as they like. A new puppet show is also on the bill for the little ones, who will be shouting along to the amusing and hilarious Tartar of Tarascon, who is easily being fooled.
Rocher Mistral is also about sharing good times together in the charming and welcoming Auberge Daudet around its Provençal dishes or during a quicker meal at the “Guinguette” of Marius in front of an incredible collection of ancient games in free access or next to the pétanque field which puts at your disposal bowls and jacks for a memorable family or friendly competition!
A day at Rocher Mistral is like no other. It is a day of surprises, sensations and happiness to be shared between all generations in a leisure park with a majestic setting.

The uprising of the Cascavèu:
1630, a peasant revolt causes the fire of the castle of La Barben. Cardinal de Richelieu wants to take control of the taxes of Provence. The local population does not see it the same way.
