A monument for the mountain panorama The pedestrian suspension bridge, named after main sponsor Charles Kuonen, measures a proud 494 meters in length and stretches up to a height of 85 meters above the Grabengufer ravine in Mattertal valley. The bridge is intended to be a “monument for the mountain panorama”, whereby utmost emphasis was placed on interfering as little as possible with nature – a design that worked. The transparent construction of steel cable and wire mesh integrates perfectly into the environment. Working at a dizzying height, Swiss company swissrope finished construction of the bridge in only two and a half months by using special “assembly sleds”
What an adventure to climb up to the Suspension Bridge! The hike was not at all easy, but very rewarding once you've reached the top. Four families with children (ages 8 - 10 ) and 2 Shitzu dogs (one lazy - had to be encouraged and the other one pushing forward and encouraging us) all had a wonderful time. We absorbed the beauty of nature, the fresh smell of the trees, and the breathtaking views. Some of us didn't reach the top, because they were not prepared for a steep hike such as this one. They climbed down and had ice-cream and french fries in a small pub. However, if you are well prepared, mentally, and physically, you'll have an unforgettable day. Make sure to have enough water (there are fountains of fresh cold water in the village) and some fruit and snacks. Bring or find a walking stick, especially for the climb down. It is much nicer to do it with friends, the kids chatted all the way through and were way ahead of us. This adventure is free and freeing!

If you come to the top on foot, it is free. I should point out that it gets pretty cold up there, so be appropriately dressed. that all, enjoy the breathtaking views of Austria motherland.

I crossed the Goms bridge with my daughter on a beautiful walk having caught the train from Fiesch to Furgangen. Absolutely stunning and some great photo opportunities, I’d recommend it without hesitation, especially if you have young children.

This is one of the - if not THE - most beautiful spots in the Verzasca Valley. The bridge dates back to medieval times (even though destroyed in the 19th Century and rebuilt in the 60s). The river Verzasca runs under the bridge in the most insane colours - if you visit on the right day in the right season. Gotta be a bit lucky. All the shades of green and blue, it's an amazing sight. The bridge itself is made of stone and has two arches and is quite narrow. We were lucky to visit on a day when only a handful people were around. Made some good pics and we really had time to enjoy the views, sit back on one of the benches and having a picknick while looking at the bridge. It's a beautiful spot here. You also can swim here, but be careful. After heavy rain the waters can be fast and even deadly. Parking is just next to on the main road. On a busy day I image it can fill up easy, but on the day we went there were lots of empty spaces. The Verzasca Valley is really a place you shouldn't miss, especially this location here. Best if you have your own wheels, since public transport is limited.
