Hiking
In addition to the great view of the Rhine, the cathedral and both banks of the Rhine, the bridge itself is a beautiful piece of urban architecture.

The Middle Bridge is the oldest surviving Rhine crossing between Lake Constance and the North Sea and also marks the boundary between the High Rhine and the Upper Rhine.
In 1225, under Prince-Bishop Heinrich von Thun, a bridge partly made of wood and partly of stone was built across the Rhine.

The Mittlere Brücke (common name, but official name Mittlere Rheinbrücke) is Basel's oldest Rhine crossing. It is located at Rhine kilometer 166.6 and is considered the border between the High Rhine and the Upper Rhine.
The first bridge at this location was built in the first half of the 13th century and stood - with modifications - until 1903, when it was replaced by the current bridge.
Until the opening of the Wettstein Bridge in 1879, the Middle Bridge was the only Rhine crossing in Basel.
