Malaga’s Caminito del Rey is set to open what Spain says will be the country’s longest suspension bridge, a new attraction that is expected to become a major draw for visitors to the popular cliffside walkway. The bridge is part of an expansion at the site in southern Spain, where timed entry and guided access already help manage heavy demand.

Officials have not said in the source material when the bridge will open, how long it will be, or how many people it can carry at one time. The new span will add another route element to the existing walkway, which runs through a steep gorge and has become a major day-trip attraction from Malaga and other parts of Andalusia.

The Caminito del Rey, once known as one of Spain’s most dangerous paths, was rebuilt and reopened to visitors after safety upgrades. Since then, it has drawn strong interest from domestic and international travellers, prompting authorities to manage access carefully to limit overcrowding and preserve safety along the route.
