Stone Arch Bridge (Minneapolis)

Stone Arch Bridge and the St Anthony Falls Heritage Trail A short loop with a lot packed in. The former railway bridge, which carried trains for nearly a century before it reopened to walkers and cyclists in 1994, is one of the best ways to see St Anthony Falls. The Heritage Trail loop, about 1.8 miles, crosses the Mississippi on it and comes back over the Father Hennepin Bridge. After a long repair the bridge reopened in July 2025, ahead of schedule. Riverside paths on either bank stretch the run as far as you like.
