Even though it turns sharply to the right, I would recommend this path. The path straight ahead becomes quite narrow with a lot of scree.

Certain sections are very tricky. Loose scree, partly hidden under leaves and very narrow.

The bridge is known for its impressive panorama. From this vantage point, one of the most beautiful views upstream of the former fishing village unfolds, with its medieval half-timbered houses and boat moorings situated directly on the water. In the distance, the striking Old Town Hall, built in the middle of the river, can be seen.

Beautiful view of Little Venice with its well-kept half-timbered houses. Not as crowded as the Lower Bridge.
