Great view of the dam and the suspension bridge. Here you can enjoy leisure activities from hiking 🥾 to getting an adrenaline rush by "rope riding" and crossing the suspension bridge, depending on your mood or courage!

From the dam you have a wonderful panoramic view. But on weekends it's very crowded here when the weather is nice. No place where you can enjoy the peace!

Walking the bridge is really great. Due to the corona, this is currently only possible in one direction, on the dam wall next door you can then go back and see the imposing bridge from the side.

October 14, 2021,Harz🐺: kurze Rappbodetal-Runde an der Hängebrücke
This short round is unfortunately limited to the suspension bridge and dam, BUT there is a beautiful circular walk R2 (see photos)!

You shouldn't be afraid of heights 😉, because it's not just the height, but also the "moving" swinging of the bridge that creates an adrenaline rush. When the weather is nice, a great view and definitely worth a stop!

.... still need some action❓😱 Just walking or cycling is no longer enough these days. There must be something with a thrill ...

Well, I'll start very smartly and leave it with the 458-meter-long suspension bridge. That's pretty harmless. Only when you stand still do you notice something smacking. Of course, I'm also there early, so that not many people …

Today, unfortunately, it's time to return from the beautiful Harz Mountains.
There's no time for a hike, it takes too much energy before the journey home. So, to the Rappbode Dam.
The really impressive dam is a huge visitor magnet there, you can get a fantastic overview of everything from the observation tower, and of course the gigantic suspension bridge …

Walked a lap across the longest suspension rope bridge of its kind, the Titan-RT, with a view of the Rappbode Dam at a height of 100m.

After my visit to Wernigerode, I drove to the Rappbode Dam. There, you'll find the Titan RT pedestrian suspension bridge. Since it was windy, I liked the idea even more, hoping it would sway a bit in the wind and bounce a bit as visitors walked across it.

Titan RT
This cable suspension bridge is one of the longest in the world.
It is 483 meters long and weighs 118 tons.
The bridge is approximately 100 meters high.

Day of quick visits. After the detour to Baumannshöhle, we went to the Rappbodetalsperre, where we had to cross the Titan RT suspension bridge. Exciting thing. Wouldn't have thought that one would falter like that. In the surrounding area you can hike well, but that didn't happen today.
