Saut à l'élastique Paris, Bungee jumping platform in Saint-Georges-le-Gaultier, France
Saut à l'élastique Paris is a bungee jumping platform built on a historic viaduct spanning the Vaudelle river in the French countryside. The structure rises approximately 45 meters above the water and serves as a controlled free-fall jumping point with various available techniques.
The viaduct was originally constructed in 1913 for a tramway project that never came to fruition. Decades later, the abandoned structure was repurposed as a jumping facility and eventually became recognized as a major destination for this extreme sport.
The location brings together thrill-seekers from across the region who gather to experience the rush together. This shared pursuit creates a community of people who seek out extreme sensations and push their physical boundaries.
Visitors should expect to climb approximately 114 steps to reach the jumping platform and should be in reasonable physical condition. Weekends are when the facility is open for jumping operations.
The jumping platform offers various specialized jumping styles including backward jumps that change how the jump feels. Each style alters the experience and how jumpers perceive the river and landscape below.
