Grub Suspension Bridge
Highlight (Segment) • Bridge
The Grub-Grub pedestrian suspension bridge between Grub Appenzell and Grub St. Gallen is one of the solid, down-to-earth suspension bridges. Without frills and with two anchorages on each side, the bridge still swings enough to feel the real suspension bridge experience. With a walkway width of just 65cm, it is one of the narrowest suspension bridges in Switzerland. Because the side cladding was attached conically, the width at "backpack height" is still sufficient for careful crossing.
The bridge is a welcome shortcut for locals between the two villages. Since the bridge, opened in April 2019, was also mentioned in the Swiss press and on television, it is also known regionally. On beautiful weekend days, there can be quite a few people at the bridge.
It is 180 meters long, the new attraction in the Appenzeller Vorderland.
Since April 2019, the two villages Grub AR and Grub SG have been connected again by an attractive, 180-meter-long suspension bridge over the Mattenbach. A very popular hiking trail across the cantonal border from Frauenrüti Grub AR to the Grünau area Grub SG is thus continuously accessible again.
The bridge is only for the sure-footed. The highest point of the bridge is around 40 meters above the gorge.

Fünfländerblick Viewpoint
Highlight • Viewpoint
On the Fünfländerblick, the view is fantastic. The Fünfländerblick owes its name to the view of Switzerland, Austria, and the formerly independent German states of Bavaria, Württemberg, and Baden.
