Gaudo Suspension Bridge

가우도 출렁다리 · Jeonnam · Viewpoints

Gaudo Island, the only inhabited island among Gangjin's eight islands, is connected to the mainland by a suspension bridge. The suspension bridges installed on both sides of the island have emerged as Gangjin's famous destination, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. While crossing the dizzying suspension bridge, one can see the wonderful seascape that changes in brightness depending on the waves. The footbridges, Jeodu Suspension Bridge (438 m) or Dasan Bridge (716 m), can be used to entrance Gaudo Island, and there is also a clean trail along the coastline. It takes about one to one and a half hours to walk across both bridges, making it a great place to enjoy a walk. · ·
