Pont de l'Étang

About

The Etang Bridge is a puddled iron bridge crossing the mouth of the Saint Paul Pond at Saint Paul, on the island of La Réunion, French overseas department and region in the South West Indian Ocean. Built in 1879 and completed in 1880, this 100-metre long trellis bridge initially houses the Réunion Railway. It now serves as a gateway for pedestrians and cyclists, recording more than 500,000 passes per year around 2025. It is located within the Saint Paul Pond National Nature Reserve.
