Fußgängerbrücke Kicking Horse

Die Kicking Horse Fußgängerbrücke 

Stroll on the River Walk, which opened in October 2021, and over the Kicking Horse Pedestrian Bridge at 8th Ave North which connects Golden's downtown with residential neighborhoods. The bridge spans the river of the same name, stretching over the icy waters of the Kicking Horse River. 

Mit einer Breite von 46 Metern ist sie die längste freistehende Holzrahmenbrücke in Kanada. Im Jahr 2001 kamen über 100 Mitglieder der Timber Framers Guild aus den USA, Europa und ganz Kanada, um beim Aufrichten der Brücke zu helfen.

Der Überbau wiegt etwa 210.000 Pfund und wurde aus 72.000 Fuß Douglasienholz gebaut. Die Gemeinde Golden betrachtet die Brücke, die auch den Rotary Trail kreuzt, der die Stadt umrundet, mit Stolz als ein Symbol der Zusammenarbeit.

Golden was ok. The town is actually not that scenic itself. We had ebikes and biked a bit but moved on to other spots. The new sky bridge park is a good addition to the area. Golden needs to do some...
