Seasonal “bridge” over the Gardon. The middle part is a concrete path. Access on each bank via a small wooden bridge. Unfortunately, the entrances will be dismantled in September - so that they are not destroyed when the Gardon has more water again.

Every summer, part of the Gardon's banks are transformed into a seaside resort. Restaurant, supervised bathing area, beach volleyball, pedal boat rental and much more.
