This viaduct spans the Luzège Gorges at a height of 92 meters. Originally a railway viaduct, this structure was used for a long time by the Transcorrézien railway, which connected the Tulle countryside to Ussel. It has been renovated to serve as a greenway and allow the inauguration of cycling and hiking trails.

Luzeges Gorges Viaduct Construction began in 1911 and was completed two years later. The structure is composed of an impressive metal structure, a testament to the engineering of the time. It once provided a passageway for trains crossing the region. Today, it has become a popular tourist attraction.
