About

Located in the municipality of Pesquera de Duero, it is one of the largest wooden bridges manufactured in Spain (the largest in its category), with a total length of 106 metres, 3 metres wide, a maximum span of over 50 metres and weighing some 50 tonnes. It is made up of 4 modules built in Asturias and then transported by special vehicles to Pesquera, where they were assembled in a week, fitting perfectly into the landscape and having a reduced visual impact (unlike concrete or steel) without reducing the strength or quality of the bridge. The barrel-shaped bent railings are a nod to one of the main activities that water the Douro: wine production.

As with the Quintanilla de Arriba footbridge, comparisons with a snake are inevitable due to the zigzag that the structure draws over the Duero.

You can see more riverside bridges here.
