The Fountain Walk is a reflection of the life of the districts. The fountains become a thread in the history of the town. A fountain is just a fountain. A marble or granite basin and flowing water. And sometimes a pretty goat, because that's what the pillar where the spout is fixed is called in French.

That said, let's stop for a moment and listen to the sounds of history. Not so long ago, the fountain was a real place of life, pleasure and work. Today, the social role of some of them still exists. This can be seen in particular at Crétel, at stage 13.
In Bex, fountains are to be found...
