    The Trift Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the Triftsee lake and offers a thrilling experience with stunning views of the surrounding mountains and glaciers. This bridge was built in 2004 (a.k.a. the New Trift Bridge) to replace an older one that was destroyed by a rockfall, and is 560 feet long and 330 feet high above the water. It

    You can reach the bridge by taking a cable car and then hiking for about 1.5 hours. The hike can be challenging, but it is worth it for the spectacular scenery and the unique experience of crossing the bridge.

    Please be advised that that the bridge is not suitable for people who suffer from vertigo or have a fear of heights, as the bridge sways slightly in the wind and can be quite narrow in places.
