Not far from the village of Gadmen in Switzerland, hikers used to be able to traverse an Alpine valley via a glacier, but global warming has since melted the glacier, and a bridge was first built for the crossing in 2004. You can still see the glacier remnants from the narrow Trift Bridge, and the resulting Lake Triftsee is stunning. This pedestrian suspension bridge lies 300 feet above the lake and is over 500 feet long. It offers spectacular views to anyone brave enough to hike or take a nervous cable car ride up to the intimidating structure.
