Royal Gorge Bridge opinions?? 🌉

One of the craziest places I’ve been to is the Royal Gorge Bridge!! It’s 956 ft off the ground above the Arkansas River and is the highest bridge in the US 🇺🇸! It is located about an hour south from Colorado Springs! 5/5!!! I’m so afraid of heights and I did it! Would you cross the bridge?? Who wants to visit?!

Royal Gorge Bridge & Park

2024/6/15 Edited to

The Royal Gorge Bridge, often referred to as the highest bridge in America, stands at an astonishing 956 feet above the Arkansas River. Opened in 1929, it has become a landmark attracting adventure seekers and tourists alike. Interesting facts about this engineering marvel include its ability to hold 2,000,000 pounds and the recent addition of thrilling activities such as zip-lining across the gorge. Many visitors report a mix of exhilaration and fear, especially those challenged by heights. Overcoming that fear can turn into a rewarding experience as you take in the breathtaking views of the gorge and the vibrant surroundings. Nearby, visitors can explore the Royal Gorge Park, which offers various attractions such as gondola rides and a scenic river launch, enhancing the overall adventure. So, if you're planning a trip to Colorado, make sure to include a stop at the Royal Gorge Bridge for an unforgettable experience that combines history, adrenaline, and stunning natural beauty.

I HATE heights!!! But there are things we do for our kids, like getting across a crazy bridge, even if it means we are practically running across and repetitively saying, "don't look down" like Donkey in Shrek 🤪😅 My fear of heights is why I don't have better photos lol Heads Up: It

A bit pricey for a short train ride and food. We paid $119 each for our tickets and food was definitely on the pricier side but it was a great experience. They take photos of you before you hop on the train if you want, and you pass through a beautiful part of the gorge twice. We went after rafting
