Pont de Sainte-Croix, Road bridge in Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon, France.
The Pont de Sainte-Croix extends 290 meters across the valley and rises 45 meters above the terrain, connecting both sides of Sainte-Croix-du-Verdon.
Construction company Bouygues engineered the bridge in the 1970s as part of the infrastructure development following the creation of Lake Sainte-Croix in 1973.
The bridge serves as a central point for accessing the Regional Natural Park of Verdon, where local traditions and outdoor activities merge with natural landscapes.
During summer months, the bridge experiences increased traffic as visitors travel between the villages of Bauduen and Aiguines to reach different beaches and viewpoints.
The structure provides direct access to multiple swimming areas and water sport facilities while offering views of both the artificial lake and the Verdon gorges.
