The Three Countries Bridge is a striking pedestrian and bicycle bridge that spans the Rhine, linking Weil am Rhein in Germany with Huningue in France. Completed in 2007, it is the longest single-span pedestrian bridge in the world, measuring 248 meters. The bridge's elegant, curved design offers stunning views of the Rhine and the surrounding landscape. Walking across, you can see the borders of Switzerland, Germany, and France, hence the name. It's a popular spot for a leisurely stroll, cycling, or simply enjoying the river scenery. At night, the bridge is beautifully illuminated.
