Mississippi River Bridge Walk

Route map for my two day walk crossing Mississippi River bridges in Minneapolis and St. Paul

Did you know that you there are 23 bridges in Minneapolis and St. Paul that allow you to walk or roll across the Mississippi River? This October, I spent a weekend walking across 19 of them and am in love with this way of experiencing the river and our twin cities. This route was so much fun that I plan on making this walk an annual tradition. For this walk, I used the Twitter hashtag #MissRiverBridgeWalk.
