EN: This pedestrian suspension bridge is located on the hiking trail "Lötschberger Südrampe" near the Baltschieder viaduct.
The hiking trail was established in 1960 along the Lötschberg railroad line. The bridge crosses the gorge of the Baltschiederbach and ends on the east side in a tunnel built for the construction railroad, which existed until 1913 for the construction of the final line.
The bridge is about fifteen meters long and a little over a meter wide.
