Pont d'Espagne

The Pont d'Espagne spans across the convergence of Gave de Marcadau and Gave de Gaube rivers, surrounded by mountain peaks of the French Pyrenees National Park.

The bridge established a vital trading route between France and Spain through the Pyrenees mountains, enabling merchants to transport goods between the two countries.

The national park surrounding Pont d'Espagne maintains traditional pastoral practices while supporting scientific research about local flora and fauna species.

Visitors can access the site via a dedicated parking area, with multiple hiking trails leading to nearby mountain refuges and the Lac de Gaube.

The bridge location marks the meeting point of two mountain streams, creating a series of waterfalls that flow beneath the stone structure.
