It is the best place to walk and a unique feature of Chattanooga. You can see both sides of the river and cross from Coolidge Park to the Bluff View Arts districk and restaurants. Love it!
We were in the downtown area and decided to walk across the bridge and checkout he shops on the other side. Unfortunately my camera battery had died our we would have had some of the best pictures of the whole trip on that bridge. The view of Coolidge Park is really good as well as the river and downtown.

Relaxation and enjoyment
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/23/08
I use to work near the Walnut St Bridge and I would walk at lunchtime everyday. Sometimes I would walk again when I got off work. Now I am farther out and don't get there as often as I would like but I could not think of a better way to enjoy the day. I love the view and passing people that you can tell are enjoying life!I am praying that God will grant me favor and move me to this area. It is where I feel the happiest and at peace. Elaine
This is such a fun place in Chattanooga. It's wonderful for exercise, but there are also great little ecclectic shops and restaurants on the other side of the bridge across from the aquarium. Plus, the park below the bridge is outstanding and so much fun in the summer. The kids love the water features and the carousel. Must do it! Eat lunch at the Mud Pie! Yum!!!

Really nice place to walk

Even though the scenery is great and the views spectacular, I was a slightly uncomfortable with the number of obviously homeless people sitting along the walkway, others drinking from bottles in brown paper bags, and were even approached for a handout. And this was in the middle of the afternoon during the week. Being from Chicago this was not a new experience for us, just didn't expect it here.

It is an awesome place to get outdoors. You can walk over the bridge to shops on the north shore or go to the Hunter Art Museum on the the south shore. It's beautiful and very unique to Chattanooga.

What A Place

I ask my girlfriend to marry me on that bridge. Lucky me she said yes. I will never forget it. It is breath taking and very nice at night as well. If you go through Chattanooga don't miss this attraction. P.S. Take Your Camera.

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/29/06
It is my (Cheryl) favorite place to go, at anytime, feel safe..and to just see the most beautiful scenery all around it. And since the new things under it, around it..in the city, ect r just fabulous. We have lived here for 10 years, and love it every year more and more. Keep it up. We LOVE IT!!!
We had been downtown walking all afternoon, so by the time we got to the bridge we were exhausted, but our walk over the beautiful Walnut Street Bridge was very romantic.
There is just something magnetic about the atmosphere there! Very rarely will you find it empty, even when it's raining or 25 degrees outside. Whether you go by yourself, with your significant other, your family or a group of friends, there is something for everyone to appreciate and enjoy.
Along with the breathtaking view, I have seen 5 ...
