You’ll discover our ancestors’ ingenuity in making use of the spring and stream water, so precious in the Cévennes d'Ardèche. This trail is dotted with fountains, wash houses and other small water courses skilfully laid out to irrigate the many gardens.

This easy stroll is perfect for the whole family and will delight all those of you passionate about old stones and ancestral skills. The covered wash house in the hamlet of Gadilhe, nestled in a small, welcoming clearing, is still in perfect condition.
