Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge.

A great pedestrian bridge spanning through Missouri River between Iowa and Nebraska. We were staying in the area for a few days and wanted to see the local sights. We walked this bridge and the views were fantastic. It was great to stand with one foot in Iowa and one foot in Nebraska. It may seem silly but I thought it was cool. If you are in the area it's worth it to go and walk it.

This is one of the most amazing pedestrian bridges I've visited. The view was breath taking and it was so peaceful. It wasn't overly crowded today (Saturday) so that was a plus. The best part was the signage showing being in 2 states at once. 😁 Definitely recommend to visit at least one time if you are in the area!

🌁Some time In 2019, I was training for a new skill in the Nebraska area. On my time off, I decided to go on a nice stroll to the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian bridge. I got to see where Nebraska and Iowa meet. So essentially, I walked from Nebraska on this bridge to Iowa. I actually hung out in Iowa for a little bit. I went for a walk in Iowa and spent some time at a recreational park and community center. I explored the park and just walked around. It was a pretty interesting adventure. I was able to capture some things that stood out to me. I was able to get in a good, relaxing and soothing walk while engaging in mindfulness. It felt good to be aware, in the moment, and observant of my surroundings. There weren’t very many people who were walking on the bridge that particular day, but I did pass cross paths with few ever now and again as I made my way to the Iowa state side of the bridge. 🌉 Love, Light, Peace, Blessings, mindfulness, Community, environment, Journey, fun times, memories

Crossed early afternoon without a crowd. The entire bridge is 3,000 feet (slightly over a half mile). There are two ramps entrances with the NPS parking lot offering more parking. Nice views on the N/I divide. If you plan to hang there, expect temperature change and wind to increase. Easy cross for walkers, bikers, and wheelchairs. The Iowa side has a relaxing vibe with a--we are not alone--piece of art you will find irresistible to photograph. Relax once you reach the Iowa side with benches, additional walking paths, and a great view of Omaha.

First time to omaha. Beautiful bridge. Someone had left some chalk on the bridge and the kids enjoyed writing and drawing. It was too windy and cold being up that high. Hopefully we can come back some times in the summer and really enjoy omaha.

The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge is a beautiful place with stunning river and city views. Perfect for walking, biking, and photos. A must-visit spot for locals and visitors.

In August 2025, we visited the Bob Kerry Pedestrian Bridge in Omaha, Nebraska. This bridge spans the Missouri River between Iowa and Nebraska, and it offers stunning views of Downtown Omaha. There was abundant free parking on the Nebraska side. The bridge is about 20 feet wide, and we did not feel afraid or uncomfortable walking across the bridge. There is no cost to walk across the bridge, either. This was a super fun and memorable experience to walk across this bridge and back and enjoy the scenery.
