Les 3 ponts par la digue- Balade
It’s an easy, family-friendly hike. It is accessible to strollers and, if small children want to follow by bike or balance bike, no problem! It's all flat and paved!

ITINERARY:
From the Bourg-d'Oisans tourist office, follow the road towards Alpe d'Huez. Before the bridge over the Romanche, turn left onto the road to the dike.
Follow this Stade road which goes down (and therefore leaves the dike), pass in front of the skate park and the stadium (on your left) and continue straight on. You then join the Green Way route which, via a tunnel to pass under the D1091 road, takes you to the Romanche dike.
Your walk then follows the route of the Voie Verte – a shared space for pedestrians, bicycles and horses – and takes the embankment on the left bank of the river “la Romanche” to the place called “les 3 ponts”.
It is called this because it is a very small place, linking 3 bridges successively spanning three different rivers (the Rive, the Romanche and the Sarenne).
From the bridge you will have a beautiful clear view of the valley.
