A pair of steel arch bridges spanning the Colorado River in northern Arizona, marking the gateway to Marble Canyon. The original bridge, completed in 1929, connected remote parts of the state and opened up access to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. A new, modern bridge was built in 1995 to handle larger vehicles and heavier traffic, while the original was preserved as a pedestrian walkway. Visitors can walk across the old bridge with their pets (leashed), enjoying panoramic views of the river and towering canyon walls.
It's also one of the best places to spot endangered California condors, which often rest on the bridge beams or glide overhead. Along the walkway, you'll often find Navajo artisans selling handmade jewelry and crafts—beautiful pieces and friendly conversations make it a special cultural stop. With its stunning views, accessible trails, and rich history, this bridge is much more than just a quick roadside stop—it's a peaceful place to connect with nature and local heritage.
