A picnic area right next to the chapel built in the 1950s, located in the town of Dourgne, 25 minutes from the hamlet of La Montagnarié, in a small, cool, wooded valley at the foot of the Montagne Noire, through which the Baylou stream flows.
Some of the highlights include: the waterfall and its spring, which was once frequented by those hoping for a cure. One custom in particular was observed here, as in many other places: washing the affected area with a cloth, which was then left behind. Hence the name “monies” given to this locality—a word in Occitan that refers to the cloths left near sacred springs.
Please respect the site and others, and keep the communal areas clean.
