    SUSPENSION BRIDGE AT ST.LUZIA CHURCH
    A suspension bridge was built for the Drau Cycle Path between Bleiburg and Neuhaus near the village of Aich over the Feistritz. At the information station and water point north of the bridge there is a metal stele by local artist Karl Vouk.
    The 140 meter long and 45 ton bridge is unrivaled in Austria and is a spectacular eye-catcher.


    This extravagant steel cable construction spans the 60th
    meters deep Feistritzgraben and at the same time closes one
    significant gap in the remarkable Drauradweg project. The costs
    of 450,000 euros were raised by the EU as part of a
    Interreg program, the state of Carinthia and the municipalities of Neuhaus,
    Bleiburg, Ruden, Lavamünd and Dravograd upset. Completed
    The suspension bridge was built by the Timber Force company in five months
    Wooden constructions from Klagenfurt. Because this dizzying
    Project when crossing is subject to fluctuations, the
    Bikes can only be pushed over it.
