The most adrenaline-pumping Tibetan bridges in Trentino

From Val di Rabbi to the woods of Paneveggio: 3...suspension bridges

In Trentino, there are bridges similar to traditional Tibetan rope bridges, but which could more correctly be described as 'suspended bridges'. Appearing to float in mid-air in the woods, crossing waterfalls and rivers, they differ from Tibetan bridges in featuring a walkway for easy crossing. In fact, safety is also guaranteed thanks to the steel beams laid on cables for walking on and high protections at the sides.

Crossing Trentino’s Tibetan bridges is not difficult: even little ones can manage it… as long as they're not afraid of heights!

The Monte di Mezzocorona bridge

The Monte di Mezzocorona bridge

The Monte di Mezzocorona bridge, which hangs over the idyllic Val della Villa, consists of a 123-metre-long bridge of steel ropes. At its centre-most point, you’ll have almost 130 metres of emptiness beneath your feet. A must-try!

Bridge over the Ragaiolo waterfall

Bridge over the Ragaiolo waterfall

A walk of about half an hour takes you to the mouth of the Ragaiolo bridge, in Val di Rabbi. You have clear view of the waterfall that gives the name to the suspended walkway. You are about 60 metres above ground, but fear nothing: the path along the bridge is safe and also suitable for children.

Bridge in Val Noana

70 metres long, almost 30 high: it is the Tibetan bridge in Val di Noana, in the San Martino di Castrozza area. Anchored to the rock wall, it can also be travelled by cyclists. A few minutes’ walk from the bridge, you will also find the adventurous path for canyoning.

Bridge over the Travignolo creek

The Marciò trail winds through the majestic Paneveggio forest, between the Lagorai chain and Pale di San Martino. The loop is easy and accessible also to visitors with disabilities, provided that they are accompanied. And it is in its last stretch that you cross the spectacular suspension bridge over the Travignolo creek.
