Font d aigua (sense análisis, però potable) entre el poble de Sant Privat d en Bas i el petit Coll de Bas. He pogut omplir el camelbak abans de fer el coll i ha sigut un encert.

Un bon lloc per parar a dinar o menjar alguna cosa per recargar energia. Segons l hora et fan esperar una mica, però res que sigui un problema.
