In proximity of the Pont d'Ael hamlet, on the right side of the road leading up to Cogne from Aymavilles, an aqueduct-bridge in masonry and stone blocks built above the Grand-Eyvia stream gives evidence of the magnificence of the works realised during the Roman era, measuring 56 metres in height and more than 50 metres in length. The monument had a double function of bridge and acqueduct and was consequently built on two different levels: a drain for canalizing water in the upper part and a covered passageway of about 1 meter width in the lower section, allowing the transit of men and animals. Free visit of the bridge all year round. From Spring to Autumn it is possible to visit the covered passage (for a fee).

We were lucky enough to stay in a lovely holiday rental house here and so enjoyed views if the bridge in many different atmospheres with delightful old buildings all around. it is really close to the Augustus Arch.
