    This is a beautiful place to visit as part of your morning walk in Banff. There were hardly any people in the morning, and the views on both side keeps you in awe. The distant mountains and the pristine waters are absolutely majestic and it's an easy walk or ride across. Highly recommended as part of your morning stroll or jog!

    Beautiful spot in town. Love walking down Muskrat Street onto the bridge and back around the other side, a lovely big loop to enjoy the scenery and take beautiful photos. Be careful, it can be very slippery and icy in winter and might catch you off guard!

    Great bridge. This bridge offers an Amazing and beautiful views of Bow River and surrounding mountains. You can park your car in Banff Downtown, walk across this bridge and take the Bow River trail to see the Bow falls and viewpoints. It felt so serene and peaceful, watching the Bow River flowing. A must visit place when visiting Banff!! Highly recommend!!

    Absolutely beautiful, one less star for the lack of public restrooms.. it's long walk back to the main market for restrooms.

    Great views, stable bridge, wide enough for fancy walking and regular type. Well maintained.

    A beautiful addition to the town of Banff. This river area is stunning now. We walked by the bridge at night time and stood out on it in the middle of the night. It is nicely lit at night, and the lights face down so it actually becomes a great vantage point to see the stars, since you are away from any streetlights. Makes for a lovely little loop, if you walk from one bridge to the next.

    It wasn’t busy when we were there. We took a good morning walk across the bridge and stopped for these beautiful pictures of the river.

    Just crossing this bridge makes me calm and relaxed. The views from this bridge are different everyday. You can literally sees all the mountains Banff is surrounded with.

    Must go in Banff, the view of the mountain is insane. One of the best places for an "Instagram photo". Follow @evie.officially for more travel tips and recommendations

    Along the Bow River Trail path. Beautiful views over the river.

    Amazing views up the valley made more spectacular with the snow on the ground. When several people walk on it, it slightly bounces!

  • 5/5 Andrew G. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome views over the Bow River to the Banff Springs (Fairmont hotel) which looks almost surreal at sunset.

  • 5/5 Julio 1 year ago on Google
    Small and cute bridge. I’ve been crossing back-and-forth for many years now figured I’d leave a review. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a bunch of tourists on it but what do you expect, it’s Banff.

    Lovely bridge. Stumbled across this whilst going for a morning run. Stunning views.

  • 5/5 Mike L. 2 years ago on Google
    A beautiful little walk near downtown Banff. We'll worth the time and the views are quite spectacular for not leaving town. It was quite icy on the paths leading here so be careful!

  • 5/5 Sam K. 2 years ago on Google
    Cute little walk in the trees close to downtown Banff. Lovely bridge that wasn't slippery at all in March. The toddler enjoyed running up and down and listening to his loud footsteps. Beautiful scenery, as always!
