A vestige of the Carolingian era, this bridge extends the rural path that leads from Varieras to Pérols-sur-Vézère, and has now become a must-see hiking destination. It is thus used by many hikers. Its construction, typical of the period, presents itself as follows: a low-arched arch, three water crossings on the left side, and a small fore-beak made of cut granite blocks. Architecture enthusiasts will appreciate it.
