Ponte della Pistolesa

Ponte della Pistolesa, Bridge in Veglio, Italy.

Ponte della Pistolesa is a road bridge in the municipality of Veglio, in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, spanning the Poala Valley between Veglio and Mosso. It runs high above the valley floor and carries two-way traffic along Provincial Road 105.

The bridge was built in 1972 and completed in 1973, spanning the Poala valley on the provincial road between Veglio and Mosso. At the time of its construction it was probably the highest road bridge in Italy and among the first in Europe. In 2013 it ranked 102nd among the world's highest bridges and 10th in Italy. Its name comes from the former scattered municipality of Pistolesa, merged into Mosso in 1999.

The name comes from the former scattered comune of Pistolesa, merged into Mosso Santa Maria in 1999 and later into Valdilana. Since the 1990s the bridge has hosted Italy's first permanent bungee jumping centre, with over 50,000 jumps, open weekends from March to November. A local middle school displays posters on the bridge urging people not to jump.

The bridge can be crossed on foot or by vehicle and is accessible from both sides without difficulty. Clear days offer open views across the valley, making it a good time to stop and look around.

Since the 1990s, the bridge has housed the first permanent bungee jumping center in Italy, and it is still operating today. Visitors crossing the bridge may spot people jumping from its edge into the valley far below.
