The chasm of Fontaine-de-Vaucluse

With an average total flow of 630 million m³ per year, this source is the first in France and one of the largest in the world, due to its volume of water flowed.

Fresh and peaceful spring in summer, bubbling and impetuous in spring and autumn, the Fountain, a true whim of nature has been intriguing curious and researchers since ancient times.

The source results from the emergence of a huge underground network. The water leaping at Fontaine-de-Vaucluse comes from the infiltration of rainwater and snow melt from the south of Mont Ventoux, the Monts de Vaucluse and the Montagne de Lure, which represent an “impluvium” of 1,240 km² and whose only result remains the Fontaine.
