테일렛 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

♥️

This place is condemned, the footbridges have been closed to access since the accidental death of two young people who were working on them a few years ago.

The linguistic proximity of the "Pont Eiffel", which spans the valley here, and the low mountain range "Eifel" in the far west of Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer - whose world-famous Tower of Paris (named after its builder) is probably known to everyone - has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there - if you are interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 - is named after him.

The original construction of the bridge was two-story. The lower lane was for road traffic, the upper one for rail traffic. The bridge girder consisted of two massive metal girders in a truss construction. The span of the bridge is 60 m, the carriageway widths of the underpasses measure 8 m and 13.5 m.

A super long bridge, very fun to cross and quite original!
