Got here early in the morning and nobody else was there! We hiked up a path, which is shorter than the road but a lot more challenging. I’m not a big fan of heights but had to get “the photo” whilst in the area. The bridge does wobble, even with just 2 people on it. Seem to remember there is a 30 person limit.

Fantastic views on the day of my visit. Well worth all the travel and fuss to get here (3 trains and 2 buses).

Planks on the bridge are a bit on the wobbly side. Might be a trying time for people a bit wary of heights, but worth it if you can manage it.

Hey "we out here". Nice time up at the Marienbrücke. Cheap $5 horse carriage ride up, also dog friendly. Up near the trail there's lockers, restaurants, place to buy snacks. The bridge is amazing. Crazy how they built it so long ago with wood. Views amazing. Walk up is easy, maybe 20min. Good exercise for yal pudge balls. All uphill.

Simply the best spot to take photos of the Neuschwanstein. Don't hog the entrance of the bridge; just walk further in to get a far better photo.

The best place to get the best picture of the castle. It just provides a magnificent view of the castle overlooking the the glorious Alps and the vallies beyond. The castle just looks breathe taking from this point and it is worth all the efforts it takes to reach there. There is mostly a long queue waiting to enter the bridge. The waiting time sometimes goes beyond 1 hour too but what comes after is absolutely worth it.

amazing view its a must do before the castle, but can get very busy if going this way with a tour during the busy hours you might not get a chance to see it as lines could be long

A pedestrian bridge that traverses something of a canyon. The primary reason for our visit was the famous view of castle Neuschwanstein- and that view is worth the trip. In September, it was so popular that we waited in quite a long line to access the bridge itself. A person can traverse to the other side and explore foot paths that lead up and about on the mountain; for those willing to do a little work, the views are rewarding and the solitude welcome.
Overall: worth the short walk, even a moderate wait, for the view and access to even more fun exploration.
