In a shuttle bus heading to the Yuushien Gardens and suddenly confronted by this bridge. It generated a feeling of excitement and anticipation among the group as the bridge had been widely publicised because of its steep gradient. Photos must be a visual illusion as, while the gradient is steep, its 6.1% on the Shimane side and 5.1% on the Tottori side, and not discernably noticed while in a vehicle. The bridge construction is rigid frame and rises to a height of 44m above Lake Nakaumi. A bonus adventure on our trip to the gardens.

We crossed the Eshima Ohashi Bridge via Daikon Island, which floats in Lake Nakaumi. If you want to see that view, I recommend approaching from the Shimane side. Once you cross, you'll be in Tottori Prefecture, but the bridge is well known as "Beta Fumizaka" (Beta Fumizaka) because the section where it connects to the Shimane side looks extremely steep. Even when viewed from a distance, it was quite steep, but it was still quite exciting when you actually crossed it.

We wanted to capture the experience and the bridge with cameras, even using public transportation.
At first, I gave up on it because it was so far from my travel plans.
That's what happened.

On my way back, I happened to experience it by chance on a limousine bus from Matsue to Yonago Airport (Sakaiminato).
We were lucky enough to get a front-row seat.
As I was looking at my smartphone map app, "Eshima Ohashi - Sticky Slope" appeared.
It is the "best PC lamen bridge in Japan", which I can see with my naked eye but long to see.
There is a high slope on the Matsue side, and you can clearly see its shape from the side of the bridge.
I'm very excited about it.

In fact, the precipitous scene felt slightly distant from the roller coaster.

Getting here and back into town wasn't so easy, but we got there with the help of a restaurant employee, who talked to various minivan drivers offering "taxi" service to the other side of Sakaiminato. we walked the bridge one way, through the wind and rain. There is a sidewalk on each side. It was approaching dark, and with the inclement weather, not the best, but still interesting. The wait for the expected bus on the other side was too long, but it did stop raining, so not the worst. the bus itself was charming, with characters from Mizuki Shigeru .

if you want to see a crazy bridge, you should look from Shimane(Matsue side), because the bridge is curves in Tottori(Sakaiminato) side.

Traveling over the bridge several times we did not find it was really steep nor scary. It is impressive engineering, and an incline was present but certainly not overwhelming to make it one of the ten scariest bridges in the world.
Disappointed.

It didn't look anything like the photo on a leaflet. I want to know where the photo was taken & what kind of lens was used. Not photoshopped, was it?

OK, it is great bridge and as we visited great Yushien Garden, we also drove over it, altogether four times.
But most photoes lie, it really is not frightening and much more demanding hills you meet easily when driving some alpine roads.
Not worth driving many miles for it - but if in Matsue-Yushien area, visit it.

We found some exciting picture about this bridge so decided to explore during our Matsue visit. But in reality it was not so interesting. Although one side of the bridge was steep but not too much. But the drive from Matsue to the bridge was fine.

Purposely drove twice on this bridge but it don’t look at steep as some of the picture or video show. However i am pretty sure jogging up the long steep slope is a good challenge.
