Trift Bridge, Switzerland - 558 Feet Over the Glaciers

The Trift Bridge in Switzerland is one of the longest pedestrian suspension bridges in the Alps, stretching 558 feet over a glacier. This bridge, situated in the Bernese Oberland region, offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and glaciers, but the dizzying height and swaying motion make it a harrowing experience. The bridge's narrow design and open sides give a sense of vulnerability, with only a thin railing separating you from the icy chasm below.

Strong winds and shifting weather conditions add to the thrill, making the Trift Bridge a crossing that tests both your courage and your balance.
