Titan-RT Suspension Bridge & Rappbode Dam
Hängebrücke Titan-RT & Rappbodetalsperre
Beside the Rappbode Dam, Germany's tallest dam, you will find a walking suspension bridge about 483 metres long and roughly 100 metres above the valley floor. There are also a giant zip line and bungee jumping.
The Rappbode Dam is 106 metres high, making it the tallest dam in Germany, and it forms the largest reservoir in the Harz. The Titan-RT suspension bridge, which opened in 2017, spans the valley below the dam. It is about 483 metres long and roughly 100 metres above the valley floor, making it one of the longest pedestrian suspension bridges in the world. The bridge sways noticeably underfoot, so it is a real test of nerve. Nearby attractions include a giant zip line of about 1 km, bungee jumping from the top of the dam, and rock climbing. A ticket is needed for the bridge (about €6), and opening hours vary by season. It is about 30 minutes' drive from Wernigerode, and public transport is limited.
