Description:
As in all Provence, "Ici l'eau est d'or" ("Here, water is gold").
Ampus invites you to take a stroll along the canal.
With five centuries of loyal service behind it, the Canal de Fontigon is a reminder of its essential role in the lives of Ampusians.
In 1497, the canal was dug to bring water from the Hugon fountain to the village. The canal is 7.2 km long and has a 2% gradient.
