Hiking
A somewhat inconspicuous stone house can be found here, which houses the mineral water source. It was used until 1914, but was then forgotten until it was restored by a local environmental organization - SOS Loire Vivante.
The spring water is very iron-rich and the iron deposits it contains are said to be slightly radioactive - it was previously said to have healing powers. The high carbonate content can be recognized by small, rising bubbles.
