Sky Walk: Kinzua Bridge State Park

Kinzua Bridge State Park is a 339-acre park located in McKean County, Pennsylvania. The park is home to the reinvented Kinzua Viaduct, which was once the longest and tallest railroad structure at 2053 feet long and 301 feet high.

The viaduct was partially destroyed by a tornado during 2003 and was then reinvented as a pedestrian walkway during 2011, where visitors can stroll 600 feet out on the remaining support towers, peer miles out into the Kinzua Gorge, and gaze down through the partial glass platform at the end of the walkway.

the Kinzua Bridge State Park Visitor Center and Park Office features great views and self-guided exhibits that focus on the viaduct’s history and information about the surrounding area. Visitors can picnic and enjoy trail opportunities and fish for native brook trout in Kinzua Creek. The park also offers various environmental education and recreation programs year-round.

The skywalk and Kinzua Creek Trail may be closed to visitor access during periods of inclement weather, including snow, ice, thunderstorms, and high winds.
