Ponte Nel Sole ( The Bridge In The Sun)

Via Orobica
Dossena


Description

Ponte nel sole or the bridge in the sun is an engineering marvel. At a height of 120 meters from the ground, the bridge is 505 meters long and has been made with 7 steel cables. Its 1200 discontinuous treads or steps make the crossing even more exciting.

The route can be enjoyed with complete safety. There is a harness which is anchored with two carabiners, one is anchored to the continuous lifeline while the other is of the “attach and detach" type.
Access is open to kids aged 12 and above but the minimum height required is 140 cm. Both these conditions must be respected.
