Hiking - The Poiraque source

This hike allows you to cross the village of Quinson and to discover, on the plateau, the Poiraque source.

On the way, take the time to discover the various hydraulic installations of the sector (fountains, washhouse, Vaudoudurde source ...). To the north of the commune the water there is rare, only the Poiraque source is worthy of this name. It also has the advantage of sprouting about in the center of this scattered habitat. On the plateau the olive trees, vineyards and lavender fields line the course, it's a real "homecoming".

Avoid the hot summers, leave early. Provide: 2L of water per person, a hat and walking shoes.
