Hängebrücke Holzgau, Suspension footbridge in Holzgau, Austria.
The Hängebrücke Holzgau is a footbridge suspension structure that spans across a mountain gorge in Tyrol. The structure connects two sides of an Alpine passage and allows hikers to cross the chasm safely.
Construction was completed in 2012 and created a new connection for hikers in the Alps. The bridge opened walking routes that were previously difficult to access in this mountain region.
The bridge serves as a gathering point for hikers from across the region and connects different traditional Alpine walking routes. It represents how communities link their mountain landscapes together for visitors to explore.
Access is from Holzgau village via a hiking path starting from the town center. Free parking is available there, making it easy to reach the bridge on foot from your vehicle.
The bridge offers a spectacular view straight down into the valley depths below when crossing. Many visitors report feeling the height as they walk above the chasm, making the experience quite intense.
