Viseči most v današnji obliki je bil postavljen leta 1969. O mostu na tem mestu je sicer govora že v člankih iz leta 1933, ko je Celje prizadela huda poplava, iz nekaterih drugih člankov pa je moč razbrati, da je tu stal most že v času arhitekta Butta davnega leta 1893, a za te podatke ne bi mogla dati roke v ogenj. Most je bil v devetdesetih letih v zelo slabem stanju, iz otroštva se spomnim, da je bil včasih prehod preko zaradi manjkajočih desk svojevrsten izziv. Leta 2003 se je tako celjska občina odločila za prenovo in most je od takrat varen, lep in na novo prebarvan v barve Celja.
Če bi se radi malo zabavali, predlagam, da stojite na sredini, medtem ko nekdo drug teče po mostu. Most kar lepo zaniha ob gibanju.
Do cilja se je mogoče pripeljati z avtom, a je zadnji del ceste makadamski, zato raje predlagam sprehod ob naši lepi reki.
Hanging bridge in this current form you're looking at was built in 1969. I found some articles suggesting there was already a bridge in this place in 1933 when there was a major flood in Celje and the bridge was destroyed. Some articles even suggest there was a bridge here even before that, in 1893 in the time of architect Butta's city renovations but those facts are not 100% sure.
When I was a kid the bridge was in a really bad condition and you had to have a lot of courage for crossing it because of the missing wood. In 2003 there was a major renovation and since than the bridge is safe, beautiful and painted in the city colors.
If you want to have a little fun, try standing in the middle of the bridge while someone else runs on the bridge. You'll notice the bridge swinging a little.
You can drive to the finish point but the last part of the road is not paved so i suggest a nice walk down the river instead.
