Soaring over the Tarn River valley, the Millau Viaduct is a marvel of modern engineering and an icon of France. At 1,125 feet high, it’s the world’s tallest bridge, its towers piercing the clouds.

Gliding above the landscape on this slender path, surrounded by open sky, is both exhilarating and daunting.
