The walk across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge gets better every time. This 5.5 km out and back trek takes you over the bridge and back, where you can look out over the islands, the water, and Mount Rainier. It’s a fun walk for kids and anyone who likes an impressive viewpoint. The walk has a gentle incline and is stroller-friendly. There will be traffic next to you on the hike, but hopefully the views are enough to distract you.
