The Salcano bridge is famous for being the bridge with the largest stone arch in the world.
Completed in the early 1900s, it was part of a series of bridges (worth visiting) and tunnels on the railway line that connected Vienna to the southern provinces of the empire.
Legend has it that, when the wooden scaffolding that allowed its construction was being removed, the dutiful Austrian engineer in charge of the construction site was observing the scene from a nearby cliff with a gun in his hand, ready to put an end to his life if the total lowering of the bridge arch had been greater than that foreseen by his calculations.
The engineer survived, not like the bridge blown up by the A-U themselves during the First World War...

A nice tour through beautiful forests and occasionally demanding slopes.

It's truly beautiful. Seeing it from below is important!
It's a shame it's poorly lit!
