Fontaine de Vaucluse is a very popular tourist spot during the summer months. Its main attraction is the spring which flows out of a steep cliff 230 metres high. It is the largest, most powerful source in France and fifth in the world. The source runs into the River Sorgue creating a shady pool beneath large plane trees – something that is worth seeing if you are on holiday in the area.

The charming village is situated in a valley at the foot of the Vaucluse mountains and is very pictoresque. The best time to enjoy the village is in the mornng when you can wander round the charming streets without all the crowds. There are no shortage of souvenir shops so you can easily find something to take home with you as a reminder of the trip!
