EN: This footbridge is located on the famous Stockalper Trail from Brig to Gondo shortly behind the last houses of Ried-Brig.

The bridge is only about three meters long and consists of planks laid over two parallel beams. It crosses a very small brook, which one could actually get over easily without a bridge.
