Perfect view . Take many photos. Be respectful of the cyclists . A must do on a beautiful summer day during sunset .

Justin Barton

This walk is always longer than it seems, but it also always very rewarding. Take a stroll from Manhattan to Brooklyn. Once in BK you have the options to visit DUMBO or The Heights

Nik Nazneen

If you're already halfway there, finish it. If you're walking towards Brooklyn, either get ice cream from Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory at Dumbo or have a cup of hot chocolate at Jacque Torres. Or both!

Lydia Berkennou

Don't hesitate to take risk (like stepping above the hole where you can see the car under..) to take the best picture of this amazing bridge .

Don't overshoot DUMBO, an acronym for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass. Take the 1st stairs to street level , bringing you to Washington St, at the corner of Prospect St. - Green Guide Editor

Have walked this super awesome and historic Trail twice in both directions By The Way. 2002 and 2008 By The Way.

Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (bet. Joralemon St. and Grace St.) This pedestrian walkway offers spectacular views of Downtown Manhattan, the East River and the Brooklyn Bridge .

A great walk with awesome views of the Manhattan skyline.

Take the subway to Brooklyn and cross over to Manhattan. This way, you can see the beautiful views of the city .

Chet Mancini

Historic. Better for walk/run. Don't try to bike too fast--use Manhattan bridge . The tourist hordes here will jump in your way for a selfie.

Victoria Dixon

Enjoy the view , but be mindful of pedestrians and bicyclists during peak hours!

worst bridge i have ever seen. there no point to walk on it. you cant see anything decent because of shitty steel construction around

Darric Clinton

There be a rainbow up here

Sam Wasserman

Don't jump!!

Carlos Duarte

A travessia a pé certamente te trará uma sensação única de deslumbramento, que vista maravilhosa para o Rio Hudson... Fizemos a peregrinação no frio , o vento corta o rosto, portanto, se agasalhe.

один из старейших висячих мостов в США, его длина - 1825 метров)По мосту осуществляется автомобильное, и пешеходное движение — вдоль он разделен на три части. Если пешком прогулка будет длинной) осилю

Caminar y cruzar el río. Llegar a brooklyn y volver.... Las fotos que puedes hacer!!!

CrisyFrank

Cruzalo justo antes del atardecer para que puedas ver el skyline de Manhattan de dia, al atardecer y de noche.

Hakim Troyanov

На дорожке в центре моста свалка из людей днем в будни . Что тут в выходные — да кранты тут в выходные . Воду продают в начале пути, не путать с началом моста . Наслаждайтесь.
