Feeling a little thirsty? Luckily, the fountain bar is here to help.

At the end of this little path you will find this spring! (Be careful, it is not drinkable so don't count on it for hiking/trail running) otherwise beautiful viewpoint and beautiful story 👌

Water source with sometimes low or even non-existent flow in summer, make sure you have something to filter it if necessary

Fountain: 1L in less than 5 minutes

Sublime village and magnificent roads around.

It all began in 1442 when a foundation broke away from the southern flank of Pic de Luc. As it slid, it hit a limestone spur, divided, broke into enormous blocks and blocked the Drôme at two points... thus two lakes were formed: the Petit downstream and the Grand upstream. The “Grand Lac” is 5 km long and arouses envy because it is full of fish. In 1561 it thus became the property of the Carthusians of Durban, monks to whom meat was forbidden. It was only in 1804 that a huge block, the “dad”, was pierced to let the water flow at the location of the current Saut de la Drôme. This vast dry body of water now gives way to an agricultural plain (ruined Bouligons farm and its formerly cultivated terraces) and the Bouligons marsh, the last vestige of the disappeared lake. The need to avoid the Claps during the construction of the “Briançonnais” railway line at the beginning of the 20th century also gave the site a magnificent viaduct, 244 m long and 44 m high.

Typical village of Haut-Diois, former Roman capital of the region. There you will find water at the fountain, public toilets and above all a superb organic grocery store La Milpa, just opposite the bakery. It is the last village before Claps, and probably the last shops you will find before going to the other side of the Col de Cabre.

The access to this source is quite impressive. A small hatch has been fitted and provides access to the source which has a low flow and does not always seem supplied.
