Pont d'Arc
Pont d'Arc is in the Ardeche department of the Rhone-Alpes, at the western end of the Gorges de l'Ardeche and a few kilometres east of Vallon Pont d'Arc
Pont d'Arc is a natural stone arch over the Ardeche River. It is a very scenic location at the entrance to the Gorges, and one of the places where the river is accessible to motorists (the road passing along the gorges is several hundred metres above the river). It stands more than 50 metres high and 60 metres wide.

The 'village' of Pont d'Arc itself has developed around the arch although I use the word cautiously because the 'village' is really simply a group of tourist facilities, acting as a base for the Pont d'Arc and the gorges - there are cafes and campsites, and canoe hire is available.
There are small river beaches either side of the arch, which are a very popular place with visitors wanting to relax and cool down in an exceptionally picturesque location - really this is one of the most beautiful places I can imagine spending some time, even if the crowds can be a bit intense.
Note: canoeists passing along the river to canoe down the gorges of the Ardeche will all pass under the Pont d'Arc towards the beginning of their journey.
