The Ponte di Echallod is a picturesque pedestrian bridge in the Valle d'Aosta region. This stone bridge, which has been restored several times over the centuries, connects the upper and lower parts of Echallod village with other villages in Arnad municipality.
The Ponte di Echallod is a classic example of 18th-century architecture. It is built with stone and mortar.
The bridge has three arches with counterforts and has a symmetrical shape.
It is located along the path of the ancient Via Francigena, which comes from Verrès and heads towards Bard and Donnas.

The Echallod bridge is a stone pedestrian bridge, among the most picturesque in the Aosta Valley.

Restored several times over the centuries, it connects the hamlets of upper and lower Echallod to the other villages of the municipality of Arnad, located on the orographic left of the Dora Baltea river.

The symmetrical humpback structure rests on three arches supported by sturdy buttresses. On the right shoulder there is a shrine to protect travellers.
You cross it on foot following the Cammino Balteo hiking itinerary (stage 22) which here overlaps with the route of the Via Francigena.
