At 665 meters, the Skywalk Willingen is the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in Germany and the second longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the world. Only the Sky Bridge 721 in Dolní Morava, Czech Republic, which opened in May 2022, is longer at 721 meters. As of December 2024The world's largest large ski jump is an attraction for visitors all year round. In addition to sufficient parking spaces for buses and cars, the modern café-restaurant "Aufwind", a souvenir and fan shop, functional passenger lifts for the elderly and disabled, the funicular from the run-out to the take-off table and the breathtaking view from the 25-meter-high ski jump tower with "eagle's nest", the Mühlenkopfschanze offers everything your heart desires. A highlight of a visit to the Mühlenkopfschanze are the guided tours by the experienced ski jump staff.
The 90-minute tours are offered every Tuesday and Friday at 2 p.m.

Looking, floating, swaying on Germany's longest suspension bridge—how awesome! My wish has come true; I feel free and refreshed up here.
