Here the river disappears Rigotte in the mountain, depending on the water level, she can still make it to a cave opening in a rock wall, but the stream bed is often dry a few hundred meters before that. For a few kilometers you don't see any watercourse, only at Fouvent le Bas a river appears again and flows a few kilometers further with the name Vannon before it flows into the Saone. From the junction you continue on a dirt road, you have to walk the last few meters to the seepage point, the path is less suitable for racing bike shoes, especially after rain.

This dam has a fixed part and a mobile part each measuring about fifty meters long. This structure was completely overhauled in 2014 after six years of work. Thus, the original dam dating from the 1840s was equipped with a fish pass and a footbridge on which pedestrians and cyclists can circulate to cross the watercourse.

The historic place has an eventful history. In addition to the Renaissance town hall, the cathedral, the ruins of the castle and the promenade on the banks of the Saône are worth a closer look. And there are enough restaurants, cafes, bars and a supermarket.
