Titlis Cliff Walk

Image
The Titlis Cliff Walk is a pedestrian bridge along the cliff of Mount Titlis in the Swiss Alps. Built at around 10,000 feet (3,000 m) above sea level, it is believed to be the highest elevation suspension bridge in Europe. [1] [2] It broke the record held by Salbit Bridge, also located in Switzerland. [3] The bridge spans a distance of around 320 feet (98 m) but is just 3 feet (0.91 m) wide. [1] The project was designed as a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Engelberg–Gerschnialp funicular railway in January 1913. It was officially opened on 7 December 2012 during a snow storm, leaving dignitaries from 15 countries unable to see more than just a few feet; the public opening occurred a day later. [1] On a clear day, those on the bridge are able to see the glacier 1,500 feet (460 m) below them along with the Uri Alps and parts of Italy. [4] Constructed over a period of five months, the bridge was built when weather conditions permitted. It was designed to wit

Glacier caves are often called ice caves, but the latter term is properly used to describe bedrock caves that contain year-round ice.

At 62 kilometres (39 mi) in length, it is one of the longest alpine glaciers on earth.

Glaciers slowly deform and flow due to stresses induced by their weight, creating crevasses, seracs, and other distinguishing fea
