Le Viaduc de Millau   aka Millau Viaduct in English

We traveled across the Millau Viaduct.

Why is this so amazing? It spans 2,460 meters, resting on 7 piers; the world record for pier height has been achieved with Pier 2, at 245 m. Oh and so much more!

To find out all the specifics check out this link https://www.leviaducdemillau.com/fr there is a tab on the right where it will translate to English.

We were glad we stopped at the visitor’s center on the other side. The center had a mini dog agility park, and playground with a in ground trampoline,

Amazing views,

An interactive museum with a gift shop,

An outdoor area for warmer days,

and a trail to hike to the observation deck.

We took a different route home allowing us to see the viaduct differently. This little town has a nice river walk as well. We also came across a huge pencil and an alpaca or a llama. I couldn’t see the fur close enough to tell, nor their head. Although if I had to guess I would say a llama based on long ears, long face and a straight back….so animal safari.com notes.
