Viaduc de la Souleuvre is a place of great historic significance.

It holds strong metaphoric bonds to the jump that started it all - through its builder, the great Gustave Eiffel.

The old railway bridge has long ago collapsed but the impressive 61-metre stone columns are still standing and have been interconnected by an exhilarating suspension foot-bridge, to give access to the jump deck.

Apart from Bungee Jumping is it now home to the Scable, a 400-metre-long death slide or Flying Fox on which you can cross the valley at more than 100 km per hour and a Tree Top Adventure Park.

The site is open daily from mid-June to mid-September and weekends from March to November.

There's a nice looking restaurant on site & picnic area if you prefer to be self sufficient.
