Most Dangerous Hanging Bridges Worldwide


Top 10 Dangerous Hanging Bridges
Have Thrilled Trekking views





 1.Hussaini Hanging Bridge, Pakistan
Massive gaps between the planks, a wild side-to-side swing: there are reasons this is considered one of the world’s most harrowing suspension bridges.
Where: In the village of Hussaini in Northern Pakistan, crossing the Hunza River.

2.Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, UK
Spanning a chasm some eighty feet deep is the famous Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, it's construction once consisted of a single rope hand rail and widely spaced slats which the fishermen would traverse across with salmon caught off the island. the reward is seeing the diverse birdlife and an uninterrupted view across to Rathlin Island and Scotland.
Where: Northern Ireland, Ballintoy , Co. Antrim,

3.Loboc Hanging Bridge, Philippines
The swaying bamboo bridge is something fascinating and great to look at. But consider the idea of crossing it and you will feel how you suddenly start trembling with fear. The bridge hanging at the 20-meter height frightens even the most courageous.
Where: over Loboc River, Bohol, Philippines

4.Taman Negara National Park in Pahang
World’s longest suspension bridge, Canopy Bridge is situated in the most beautiful National Park of Malaysia. The rainy season ends in March. Afterward, the park fills up with an unprecedented number of tourists who go there to see the pristine rainforest, the amazing birds and the various fishes swimming in the crystal clear water of waterfalls.
Where :East of Kuala Lumpur in the states of Pahang, Kelantan and Terengganu.

5.Trift Bridge, Switzerland
The longest pedestrian 170-meter-long bridge at the height of 100 meters was first built in 2004 and rebuilt in 2009. After being rebuilt the bridge has become safer and more secure, but, still, it doesn’t make it absolutely safe. The level of safety depends greatly on the person’s carefulness and attentiveness. The bridge is a great option for trekkers wishing to see the glacier, which has started to quickly melt because of global warming.
Where :In the Alps near Gadmen, and is poised above the region of the Trift Glacier.

6.Aiguille du Midi, France
In short, it’s a tiny bridge between two cliffs that connects two mountains and offers a marvelous view of the Mont Blanc massif. The bridge is rather broad and firm, but the height (12,605 feet above sea level) at which it is located is but terrifying. In line with that, the bridge is a real and unforgettable adventure for extreme lovers.
Where: French Alps

7.Kakum National Park Bridge, Ghana
This is is something really important of you want to explore the park at most. The guide will now only show you to the secret paths of the rainforest, but will also lead you to the places where unique plants and animals, endangered species — pygmy elephants, forest buffalo and civet can be found. You will appear near one of the primary attractions, near the Rope Bridge as well. The bridge is around 30 meters above the ground and the canopy walk comprises 7 bridges of over 300 meters.
Where: National Park of Ghana near the city of Abrafo,

8.Musou Tsuribashi Bridge, Japan
Bridge more dangerous than the Hussaini Hanging Bridge in Pakistan, while there is. Let me give you some reasons for it. Built in 50s it is much destroyed now, particularly the boards and the ropes. Other than that it’s very narrow and is situated in the middle of nowhere. If for some bad luck, someone slips and falls from there, then I can’t imagine where he will end up.
Where: Southern Japanese Alps

9.Arenal Hanging Bridges, Costa Rica
A three kilometer hike through the Costa Rican rain forest. There are six suspension bridges, with the largest one at just under 100 meters long and 45 meters off the ground.
