The Walnut Street Bridge is a 2,376-foot pedestrian bridge that connects downtown Chattanooga with River Street, completed in 1890. Constructed of steel and timber, it was originally a railroad bridge before being renovated for pedestrian use in the late 20th century, showcasing stunning views of the Tennessee River and the surrounding landscape. A walk over the bridge typically takes around thirty minutes, with scenic spots perfect for photography. It’s particularly lively on weekends when locals and visitors gather to enjoy the riverfront parks and arts district nearby. Morning light offers a gentle glow on the water, making for a peaceful experience.

    We had a great time exploring Chattanooga. It was adorable and a lot of fun! My 3-year-old son even dozed off during the ride. People were capturing videos and photos of us as we went through town.Adriane_S on the One-hour Rydable tour of Chattanooga tour

    One and a half hours on stuffed-animal scooters — explore Chattanooga's history, including the Walnut Street Bridge and Bluff View Arts district, with photo stops and local stories.

    The rideables were enjoyable and simple to handle. Our tour guide was excellent and well-informed. I rated it three stars due to my booking being rescheduled twice. While the first change was understandable, upon arriving at the new time, we discovered it had been delayed by another 30 minutes without prior notification. Given the ongoing inconvenience, we should have been offered some discount. This experience makes me hesitant to book again.fidellep on the Rydables History Tour in Chattanooga — scooter tour of city landmarks tour

    Self-paced tour through Chattanooga's historic Bessie Smith Cultural Center to Walnut Street Bridge, highlighting arts and music landmarks along the way.

    I appreciated having access to the audio tour prior to my trip, which allowed me to plan effectively and enhance my experience. While the Walnut Street walking Bridge was under renovation in October 2025, I still enjoyed my time exploring. I wandered along the riverfront beneath the bridge and gained valuable insights from the monuments and placards during my side excursions.Marcia_L on the Self-guided Blues to Bridges walking tour in Chattanooga tour
