The Elizabeth Quay Bridge is a beautiful spot to start your morning, especially if you’re out for a run or a peaceful walk. Running across the bridge in the early hours offers a stunning view of the Swan River, with soft morning light reflecting off the water and a calm atmosphere that’s hard to beat in the heart of the city. The air feels fresh, the space is open, and there’s a sense of tranquility even though you’re right near the CBD.
