The Touring Club de France built a landmark in 1938 to mark the ''source authentique", the real source of the Loire River. A nearby information panel provides details of the Gerbier de Jonc platform and the council information booth .
Le monument doit prochainement être restauré et agrémenté d'une oeuvre artistique afin de lui restituer son caractère symbolique. La Loire prend sa source dans l'est du Massif central, au pied sud du mont Gerbier de Jonc, dans la commune ardéchoise de Sainte-Eulalie.

Complement Visite
Nature guides accompany you along the Sentier des Sources de la Loire path (path of the sources) every day of the week during the months of July and August, and during the weekends in late June and early September. You can also walk the path unaccompanied: past the geographical and authentic sources, follow the blue dots on the path that starts in front of the Gerbier de Jonc restaurant, left of the road that comes from the Gerbier de Jonc esplanade.Visitable
