See the imposing fortress of Citadel de Briançon. Just after the bridge there is a challenging slope with rock formations, which you should be able to cycle up on a gravel bike with a little dexterity. If you dare to look over the edge of the bridge, you will see the hundreds of meters deep gorge with the waterfalls of the Durance river.

The Ruine Blanche ravine is a formation of gypsum that was deposited in the lagoons of the Alpine Ocean. The alpine ocean was a warm, shallow sea where corals lived (fossils from the Rochebrune massif in Arvieux). In the shallows swam ammonites (fossils from the pink marble quarry of Guillestre). In the lagoons were deposited gypsum (formation of the Ruine Blanche above the hamlet of Montbardon in Château-Ville-Vieille) and cargneules (Casse-déserte in Arvieux). Fossilized sea sands, wrinkled by the waves, still bear witness to a beach. The clay and limestone sediments deposited on the ocean floor were then transformed into shales by tectonic phenomena.

The Pont d'Asfled is a stone bridge with a single arch that spans the turbulent waters of the Durance, 60 meters below. Built in the 18th century, the bridge has been listed as a historical monument since 1988. It is also famous for thrill-seekers and bungee jumpers.
