In the middle of the Rappbode Valley, the “Titan RT” stretches across the Bode reservoir with an astonishing total length of 458.5 m. The delicate cable structure anchors itself into the slate cliffs on both sides of the valley with an enormous tensile force of 947 tons. Four main suspension cables with a diameter of 65 mm form the backbone of the 120-ton structure. In addition, 2 stabilizing cables keep the bridge in shape—and, at higher wind speeds, in position. The 120-cm-wide walkway (grating) is bordered along its entire length by a 130-cm-high railing and is enclosed at the sides by stainless steel netting. From the bridge, you can enjoy an extraordinary view of the tallest dam in Germany – the Rappbode Dam. Every 45 minutes, an audio guide explains everything you need to know about the suspension bridge and its special features.
