The Vieux water channel runs alongside a stone staircase. This ingenious section of the water channel allowed the water to continue flowing down to the valley. Here you will find a hand-shaped sculpture, signed Raphaël Pache. This hand receives the water and lets it flow between its fingers to return it to the stream. The sculpture thus suggests that water is only borrowed from the mountain and that we must therefore respect it.
