Ponte alla Luna

Ponte alla Luna is a simple suspension bridge in Sasso di Castalda that connects two sides of a deep gorge and provides a walking path over the valley. It features wooden planks and metal cables, and forms part of a larger hiking trail that includes other similar structures and natural viewing points.

The bridge was built relatively recently to provide visitors with a new way to experience the landscape and to bring attention to the area. It emerged from a local initiative to combine outdoor adventure with nature appreciation.

The bridge carries a poetic name meaning 'Bridge to the Moon,' which reflects how the place feels to visitors, especially in the evening light. Local people visit this spot to pause and enjoy the nature around them, making it a gathering point that brings the community closer to the landscape.

Comfortable shoes and gloves are recommended for safe crossing, as wooden planks can become slippery and a better grip is important. Check the weather before visiting, as strong wind or rain makes crossing more difficult and less enjoyable.

Visitors often report that the bridge sways gently as they walk across it, giving a genuine sense of height even though the structure is completely safe. This experience of suspension over the valley makes each crossing a memorable moment that visitors enjoy retelling afterward.
