Mount Titlis Bridge, Switzerland

The Titlis Cliff Walk is a pedestrian bridge along the cliff of Mount Titlis in the Swiss Alps. Built at around 3,000 m above sea level, it is believed to be the highest-elevation suspension bridge in Europe. It broke the record held by Salbit Bridge, also located in Switzerland. The bridge spans a distance of around 100 meters (320ft) but is just 1 meter (3ft) wide.

Constructed over five months, the Titlis Bridge was built when weather conditions permitted. It was designed to withstand winds that reach over 190 km/h (120 mph) as well as significant snowfall, with a spokesman for Titlis Engelberg ski resort explaining that it can cope with around 450 tonnes (500 short tons) of snow. Much of the material used in construction was transported on cable cars, with larger sections being delivered by helicopter.

At a cost of around £1 million, it is hoped that the Titlis Bridge will become a significant tourist attraction, particularly during the warmer months. In the first two weeks of it being opened, around 500 visitors crossed the bridge. Media reports called it the world's scariest bridge and Switzerland Tourism called it is a high-adrenaline kind of new adventure. The ski resort spokesman claims that the bridge is 100 percent safe and explains that it is impossible to fall from the bridge.
