Fountain walk in Bex - country version

A fountain, a marble or granite basin and flowing water. And sometimes a pretty goat, since that's what the pillar where the spout is fixed is called. Having said that, let's stop for a moment and listen to the sounds of history. Some time ago, the fountain was a real place of life, pleasure and work. Today, the social role of some of them still exists. Have a look in particular at Crétel, at stage 13. In Bex, the fountains are almost everywhere. This is normal, since the municipality of nearly 100 km2 is a real water tower, pure and excellent, coming down from the nearby mountains, from the Diablerets, the Muveran, the Argentina or the Vallon de Nant.
