It is in Ushant, a beautiful place in a wild way and well preserved because it is relatively tricky to navigate there.In 1940 when De Gaulle called for people to join the free forces, all the men from Ushant crossed the channel leaving women and children live there on their own.

That bridge reminded me of this one, which is part of the Caminito del Rey. Watching the video, I'm just gobsmacked that anyone could walk that route, let alone videoing it whilst they walk!Click for YouTube video
