Suspension bridge over the Gurgler Ache with a wonderful view of the mountain stream.

The elaborate metal suspension bridge appears to be modeled after the Piccard Bridge in the Gurgler Ferner glacier. In fact, it is "merely" a feeder connection between two agricultural areas on either side of the Gurgler Ache stream.
It connects an inconspicuous path, which leads across a pasture below Obergurgl and is not even marked as a hiking trail, with an unpaved farm track on the other side of the river.
