  • Dating from the 17th century, this pretty bridge over the Verdon is well worth the detour... It's an ideal walk for a special moment in the heart of the Verdon: a calm, unspoilt place, far less crowded than the Gorges.

  • At the end of the Couloir Samson parking lot (opposite the road), you'll find the Pont de Tusset path, which follows the GR 49. After a short but steep descent through the undergrowth, you come to the Pont de Tusset: one of the most beautiful bridges spanning the Verdon.
    The presence of a bridge here is not recent: the first construction dates back to the 11th century!
    Take the same path for the return journey, but beware: it's very stony and slippery.
