No food vendors, water, or activities. The entrance was tight. No water, no tents for shade and no activities on the bridge. The Camden side had activities crammed into a small area.

Want to walk the Ben Franklin Bridge? Here is what you need to know…read more CAMDEN: The Ben Franklin Bridge just turned 100 years old and the celebration was massive. Live music, vendors, performances, food trucks, and the wildest part of all: the entire bridge was shut down to cars so people could walk across the span. It was incredible to be part of the energy, but the crowd was so huge that crossing wasn't really possible. The good news? You can walk the bridge anytime using one of the two pedestrian walkways on the north and south sides. They are open to walkers, runners, and cyclists who want to take on the 1.5‑mile stretch over the Delaware River. We heard from an attendee that it can get pretty loud with traffic rushing by, so use your best judgment if you are bringing your leashed pup. But if you time it right, the views and the experience are absolutely worth it. Also, the Camden waterfront is seriously underrated -- a gorgeous stretch of walking paths and parks with views of the Delaware River, the Ben Franklin Bridge, and the Philadelphia skyline all in one place. We also discovered that the Hilton Garden Inn Camden Waterfront is dog friendly (any size dog welcome!), which makes the area even better for exploring with your pup. The Rutgers University Camden campus sits right in the middle of it all, adding beautiful architecture and green spaces to the waterfront vibe. Brie had the best time sniffing around, exploring new paths, and taking in the views, making this a peaceful and surprisingly scenic spot to wander.

While certainly outdated by modern standards, it is a pretty cool reminder of days gone by in Bucks County. As a driver who crossed the bridge many times, I have to say it is truly a harrowing experience to cross, especially with a full size SUV. The lanes are literally so close that I had to retract my side mirrors as I was worried about clipping cars coming the other way. The bridge is located near the site where George Washington famously crossed the river during the Revolutionary War and Washington Crossing Historic Park which commemorates the event. The park is pretty nice to walk around and you can get some great photos of the bridge, river and scenery from there.

I'm not sure how a bridge actually earns the coveted fifth star. Off the top of my head I would say…read morethat the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Chesapeake bay bridge are certainly worthy of that ranking. But I am a fan of this humble bridge. It is possibly the bridge I frequent the most, or at least see the most. It bridges the gap between 2 very good parks. The NJ Washington's crossing and the Pa Washington's crossing. Both of which have their own unique qualities. As Gerald correctly pointed out, the width is scarily narrow. Some of my passengers have cringed at my choice of using it, and are thrilled when I opt for its southern or northern neighbor. It is ample enough for my small car, but when Bubba's pickup truck or Mr nature lover's Hummer approach from the other side you just have to hope for the best. There is a pedestrian walkway too, and I enjoy using that when time allows.

It may not have been quite free,…read morebut for the price of a tank of gas we were able to spend a lovely fall day with our closest friends taking the covered bridge tour in beautiful and historic Bucks County PA.. And that seemed among the "best things" to us. So we wanted to post a heads up to others via Yelp about this tour for others who might enjoy it. There are but twelve covered bridges remaining of the original three dozen originally built in Buck's' County Pennsylvania. Thanks to the hard work of some dedicated folks, the twelve that remain are maintained for all of us to enjoy. This driving (or biking) tour will take you to all of them - or some if you prefer not to do the entire tour. For our two bits, this is a great way to spend a day, including a stop at Bowman's Hill Tower to take in the views and the history of that site (it's on the tour path so you're missing out if you don't stop here) and Bowman' Wildlife Preserve. In particular on a beautiful fall day as we did last week. (Both the Tower and Preserve are in New Hope.) The Wildlife Preserve has a picnic area outside the gates so taking along a picnic lunch is a great idea. And inside the gates, there are bathrooms at the visitor center...hooray. See the website posted at the of the page for more info on each of the bridges and the driving map. Another good bridge tor website is located here. http://letsget.com/html/Directory/community/comm_states/comm_counties_pa/comm_ya_bucks/covered_bri.html#TOUR

Recently that meant exploring the trolley trails in west Fairmount Park and finding the stone spiral arch bridge. In the early 1900s, a scene trolley took people through the woods. Nature has reclaimed the trolley paths, but in recent years they have been converted into miles of hiking trails. It's not crowded--I only saw 4 other people, mountain bikers, on my visit. It's a great place to explore. It's shaded so the walk was cool. It's pretty level so the hike is easy. And if you know where to go, you can find this beautiful bridge that looks like a brick spiral. The years have taken a toll, so I wonder how much longer we'll get to enjoy it. It's cool to think that in the past so much work was put into creating a beautiful structure that really just needed to serve a simple function. Don't have time for a long hike? You can get to the bridge quickly by entering the trail from Chamounix Mansion. Park by the equestrian building and head in. It's probably less than a 1/2 mile walk to the bridge.
