Tips from the Community

Paul Carnet-Pantiez
September 4, 2024, Pont de voulon

The Voulon bridge is a concrete slab bridge, with a small barrier, the bridge itself is nothing extraordinary, but it is the hiking and mountain biking area that could impose a look of tranquility interspersed with birdsong. Natural Environment: Clain River: The bridge crosses the Dive River, which meanders peacefully through the Vienne countryside. The view of the river from the bridge is particularly pleasant, offering a beautiful perspective on the surroundings. Bucolic Landscapes: The setting around the bridge is green and peaceful, with tree-lined banks and meadows that stretch as far as the eye can see. It is a perfect place for walks and moments of relaxation in the heart of nature.

As Jacques' pictures show, there are no spectacular highlights to be found here, but Paul put it very aptly with "A place where you can linger". Exactly the right place for the hiker, who can interrupt his tour here to linger a little and will certainly enjoy it.

A beautiful place with quietly flowing water and wildflowers. A place where it is good to linger.

Paved bridge of the ford on the Bouleure. Washhouses have been renovated next door and are an ideal place for a short break!
