The view is fantastic. It's an exhilarating feeling to walk across it. However, some height-sensitive visitors apparently didn't really enjoy it (or so it seemed). Great construction and very impressive.
It's definitely worth a visit.

The suspension bridge - Skywalk Willingen (Upland)

At an impressive 665 meters long, the 120-ton structure leads from the internationally famous Mühlenkopfschanze through the Willingen district of Stryck to Musenberg. Visitors can look far into the distance from an impressive height of one hundred meters over the breathtaking low mountain landscape of the Upland. At 665 Me

tern length and 1.30m width, 700 people can enter the bridge at the same time. Sufficient parking spaces are available to visitors at Stryckbahnhof and in Strycktal. The local catering industry is well catered for. Both entrances to the bridge on the Schanzen and Musenberg sides are extremely attractive from which to start further excursions, for example to the Ettelsberg and the adjacent Hochheide or in the direction of Usseln to the Graf Stollberghütte.

The Skywalk Willingen recently opened (July 1, 2023) and is the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in Germany at 665 meters. The bridge, which cost a good 4.5 million euros, is 100 meters above ground at its highest point. A ticket costs 11 euros and can only be paid for at the south entrance (forest) by debit card (no PayPal or similar). A ticket is valid for one day! The bridge is open until 9 p.m.! Not for people who get dizzy easily. The bridge swings quite a bit!
Sensible shoes are recommended as there are gratings to walk on.
