Nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of Friuli Venezia Giulia, within the Cellina Gorge, the Barcis Tibetan Bridge represents a perfect blend of technology and nature. This steel structure, inaugurated in 2016, connects the towns of Ponte Antoi (Barcis) and Bivio Molassa (Andreis) with a 55-meter-long and 20-meter-high pathway. Access to the bridge is facilitated by entry points at Ponte Antoi and Bivio Molassa, where staff provides helmets, harnesses, and safety hooks to ensure the visitors’ security.
Beyond the simple crossing, visitors can take part in a guided tour that explores the Androne Carsico, offering a closer connection with the natural environment of the canyon.
The GE Profile: the foundation of a safe and spectacular experience
At the heart of this unique experience lies the GE perforated profile, which forms the surface on which each visitor steps. Designed to meet the highest standards of safety and durability, the GE profile is made of galvanized steel, a material universally recognized for its longevity and corrosion resistance.
The specific perforation pattern of the GE profile has been carefully engineered to prevent slipping, ensuring a secure grip even in humid conditions or on wet surfaces. Furthermore, it facilitates the quick drainage of liquids and debris, making it the ideal flooring for outdoor environments exposed to weather elements and those requiring high standards of cleanliness and safety, such as mountainous areas.
Thanks to the robustness and quality of the GE profile, visitors—especially those who may wish to overcome a fear of heights—can enjoy the crossing with complete peace of mind, knowing they are walking on a surface designed for maximum grip and stability, all while immersing themselves in the unique panorama of the Cellina Gorge.
