Is finding a public water source often a challenge for you? Look no further: you've come to the right place! Here you will find more than 2,400 public drinking fountains throughout France.
During a walk, a workout, a bike ride, in hot weather... There's always a good time to quench your thirst. On your way, you probably pass by water fountains without even knowing it.
That's why CASTALIE, a company specializing in water fountains, has decided to list on a interactive map all drinking fountains in France
The principle is simple: it is a map created on Google Maps that can be viewed wherever you are, whether on your smartphone or computer!
Avoid buying plastic water bottles from your nearest store to quench your thirst. Some cities have public fountains on almost every street corner. It would be a shame to miss out!
Fill your water bottle with room temperature water, cold water, or, for the lucky ones, sparkling water, and set off hydrated and lighthearted.
A real environmental disaster, it's worth remembering that plastic bottles are a daily scourge.
No less than 25 million single-use plastic bottles are usedevery day in France (9.3 billion per year, making France one of the five countries that consume the most plastic bottled water in the world, behind Mexico, Thailand, Italy, and Germany).
This card is nothing more than an activist initiative aimed at limiting the use of plastic bottles.
If, like us, you want to make a difference, consider keeping your water bottle in your bag.
Our greatest wish is to help you break the habit of using single-use plastic bottles by replacing them with reusable water bottles: a less expensive, less restrictive, and more eco-friendly choice.
On this map, you will find thousands of self-service still water fountains, as well as free sparkling water fountains.
Yes, you read that right: some water dispensers offer sparkling water! We are also happy to inform you that the technology behind Eau de Paris sparkling water fountains is provided by CASTALIE
Drinking water outdoors has never been easier.
Around twenty cities are listed on this map: Paris and the Paris region, Marseille, Lyon, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Mulhouse, Orléans, Clermont-Ferrand, Lille, Grenoble, Nantes, Dijon, Montpellier, Rennes, Nice, Nancy, Limoges, Reims, Digne les Bains, Chambéry... Enough to keep you hydrated all over France!
This card is yours too.
A water fountain not listed on this map in your city? We invite you to contribute to the map by adding unlisted water points.
To enhance the water fountain map, simply fill out this short questionnaire.
If you work for a city hall or tourist office, send us your lists of drinking fountains and we will add them to the map!
More than 350,000 tests are carried out each year in France to monitor the quality of tap water, which is subject to more than 60 criteria. Water is analyzed throughout its journey, from production to the tap. A law has even been passed to protect the population from the risks associated with perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).In this article, Selectradetailsthis new law and provides a simulator to ensure that the water in your municipality meets the standards. So there is no need to worry about the water that flows from public fountains.
\n\n\nRather than turning to bottled water, let's not forget that we are fortunate to have drinking water everywhere in France.
Drinking tap water is considered a fundamental right, yet 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have safe domestic access to drinking water.
Why deprive ourselves of a resource that more than a quarter of the world's population does not have access to? If you have the choice between a plastic water bottle and a water bottle that you can fill at a public fountain, don't hesitate!
Let's respect the environment together and put an end to single-use plastic bottles.
And for professional use, discover our zero-waste water fountains for businesses , connected to the mains water supply.
