    Hiking

    Waterfalls, mountain path, historical work and tunnels to cross......What could be more complete! On your legs!

    Hiking

    Before 1885, the town of Grasse was supplied by the Source de la Foux.
    But with the establishment of factories and perfumeries, his inflow quickly became insufficient. In 1874 the municipality of Grasse became the owner of Source Foulon. The plans were approved in 1878 and the canal was inaugurated on July 21, 1889. It includes numerous structures above the cavity and 22 tunnels with a total length of 2600 m. The classic aqueduct-style work is replaced in the 1950s by the currently existing large tube (60 cm diameter).

    Hiking

    An atypical passage without being extreme but not recommended for people who are claustrophobic or afraid of heights (narrow tunnels and cliffside paths). Bring spare shoes and socks 😉
