Personally, I've always thought that this bridge is one of the most beautiful spots in the area. Awesome being able to walk across it, look down at your feet and see the mighty Susquehanna River flowing underneath. Of course, the best time for this would have to be during December around twilight, with the bridge covered in lights and the sunset over the shoreline. Absolutely...

This bridge one side is concrete road, the other side is iron cable net so that you can see the water even boats crossing under your foot. be careful, don't drop your car key off, other wise you not able to drive home. I walked three times, first time afraid of the iron, second time walked on the net while look down at river, third time walked on the net but didn't looked down...

The Walnut Street Walking Bridge is definitely a landmark in Central Pennsylvania and is a great way to see the Susquehanna River and get from Downtown Harrisburg to City Island or vice versa.

Neat looking bridge for pedestrians and dogs. The narrow concrete walkway on one side is where most people walk on. The wider area of the bridge is metal and it has small holes where you can see through to the water. Definitely not paws friendly and not for those with fear of height. It has a great view and f the river on either side.

This bridge is awesome! Highly recommend if you are looking for something to do. A great way to get to city island if you wanted to check that out and are staying in the city. It also connects to the riverfront park which is great for biking, running, or walking along the river.
