There are several spans in Norway that must be of similar heights. For example spans crossing Sognefjorden, Storfjorden, Sunndalsfjorden among others though I am more interested in underneath clearanse (maxheight:marine)

As I know, these spans are longer, but not higher.

Sounds impressive. This is higher than the Peak to Peak Gondola at 436 meters above the valley floor. http://ww1.whistlerblackcomb.com/p2pg/experience/
