Baglung Parbat Footbridge

The steel footbridge stretches 567 meters across the Kaligandaki River, connecting Baglung and Parbat districts at a height of 122 meters.

Engineers constructed this modern pedestrian bridge to replace multiple shorter crossings, marking a new chapter in Nepal's infrastructure development after 2020.

Local residents from different Nepali communities gather at the bridge entrances during festivals to perform traditional ceremonies and exchange goods.

The bridge supports a maximum weight of 85 metric tons and accommodates hundreds of pedestrians daily traveling between Ramrekha and Aduwabari settlements.

This single-span structure ranks among the longest suspension footbridges in Nepal and features direct pathways to agricultural markets on both sides.
