A source explored by Modexa, using an instrument carrier that comes to rest at a depth of 308 m, on a sandy bottom.

Where does this source come from, one of the most important in Europe with an average total flow of 630 millionm3 per year? At the end of the 19th century, underwater explorations followed one another to try to discover its secret. In 1967, Captain Cousteau sent a remotely operated device that dived to 106 meters. In 1989, the Spélénaute reached a depth of 315 m. In the subsoil, galleries and cavities collect a large part of the 900 mm of rain that falls on average each year.

Un passage incontournable si vous êtes dans le Lubéron. Jolie promenade le long de l'eau et restitution du moulin avec explications intéressantes.

Une balade incontournable et magnifique à faire dans la région. afin d’accéder au lieu, un parking se trouve à l'entrée du village. celui-ci est payant (tarif unique pour la journée).
Beaucoup de monde en été.
Petit conseil : Y arriver en milieu de matinée. pas trop de monde encore. le monde arrive plus en début d’après midi.

Balade incontournable de la région. Quel endroit magnifique!
Évitez si possible la grosse affluence estivale.
L'hiver il arrive que la source déborde, c'est rarissime mais ça vaut le coup d'œil!
Des parkings, tous payants sont à l'entrée du village.
