The Ferriere suspension bridge is a pedestrian walkway that joins the two sides of the Lima stream between Mammiano Basso and Popiglio. Inaugurated in June 1923, the bridge is 227 meters long, reaches a maximum height of 36 meters above the river bed and has a width of 80 centimetres. Although it no longer holds the world record, it is still the longest suspension bridge in Italy.

The Ferriere suspension bridge in San Marcello Pistoiese is a tourist attraction located in the valley of the Lima stream, in the province of Pistoia, in Tuscany. The bridge, built in the 19th century, is characterized by a suspended structure that crosses the valley offering a breathtaking panoramic view. The bridge has an interesting history: it was originally used to allow local ironworks workers to cross the Lima stream to reach their workplace. Over the years, it has become an icon of the area and a popular tourist attraction. The bridge has been restored and maintained over the years to ensure its safety and accessibility to visitors.
