Switzerland is now home to the world’s longest treetop walkway.

Senda dil Dragun, located in the small town of Laax in Switzerland, opened on July 11, 2021, and it is the longest treetop walkway in the world. It stretches for nearly one mile through the forest and connects two Swiss villages: Laax Murschetg and Laax Dorf.

Visitors can enter the walkway from one of the two access towers and take a walk above the forest floor, at eye level with the tree canopy.
