About
The Geierlay Suspension Bridge is Germany’s most celebrated rope‑skewer bridge, stretching 360 meters across the lush Hunsrück valley and rising an impressive 100 meters above the forest floor. Located between the villages of Mörsdorf and Sosberg, the bridge offers uninterrupted panoramic views of the surrounding hills and is open to visitors around the clock, free of charge. Adventurers can enjoy a leisurely stroll across the deck, feel the gentle sway underfoot, and explore the adjoining trails that wind through the woodland.

Whether you embark on a day hike, a bike tour, or simply seek a unique photo opportunity, the Geierlay Bridge delivers memorable experiences in a natural setting.
