Tibetan Bridge in Torri del Benaco

The Tibetan Bridge in Torri del Benaco is a unique attraction on the Veronese shore of Lake Garda: a footbridge suspended between the walls of a gorge that offers thrills and spectacular views just a few steps from the lake. An easy 3 km excursion perfect for families and those seeking an accessible adventure.

The route
It starts from the historic centre of Torri del Benaco, one of the most characteristic villages of the Veronese Garda area with its small port and Scaliger castle. A short walk along a woodland path leads to the gorge where the Tibetan bridge has been installed, a footbridge suspended in the void that crosses the canyon allowing views of the rock walls and the torrent below.
The bridge is safe and well anchored, with protective side nets, but the experience of walking suspended with the void beneath your feet is thrilling. The view from the footbridge encompasses the gorge and, at the most open points, one can see the lake among the vegetation.

Ideal for families
The hike is short, easy and suitable for children from 5-6 years of age. The path is well signposted and has no exposed sections before the bridge. The height difference is minimal (50 metres) and the total walking time is about one hour. A family-friendly adventure that leaves time to explore the village of Torri del Benaco and enjoy its beaches.

Practical advice
Free admission and open all year round (weather conditions permitting). Closed shoes with non-slip soles recommended. The route is shady in the woods, pleasant even on summer days. After the bridge, the Scaliger Castle in Torri del Benaco with its museum of fishing and Garda olive growing is worth a visit. Pay car park along the lakeside.
