Gorgeous old bridge with a rich history! It’s surrounded by stunning landscapes.

Scenic abandoned bridge along the Trans Canada Highway. Park in the lot and take a 10 minute walk down the old Cariboo Highway to the bridge. Check for trains when you cross the tracks, it's an active rail line.

The short so to visit the Old Alexandra Bridge is worth it. The ropes you'll see are for native fishing nets. You may see Conservation officers there watching for those fishing. They were great guys to talk to.

Super little. Real for our road trip. We walked to the bridge, and back to the parking lot. Had a picnic supper and we're back on our way. The walk was refreshing and the view from the bridge is lovely.

Stop by for the little rest, stretch the legs, head down the windey path or find the short cut just at the railway junction down onto the bridge for some photos and a walk over.

Wonderful place, historic bridge, and good views of the Fraser canyon and Fraser River from the bridge. Although I must stress the importance of keeping all personal belongings safe while on the bridge, as the floor of the bridge surface is very porous and the holes are quite large, so many small items will fall through. When I went there, I got to see a train pass by on the tracks. However, my father dropped his flashlight while getting something on the bridge, and we were all so worried that he dropped something important, like his wallet or his house keys. My advice is, keep all personal belongings secure and safe while on this bridge!

Great little off-the-highway family driving break location. Kids love it, especially when the water is high and wild.

Avoid going to Hells Gate and, instead, visit this park and bridge; the scenery is just as good and the bridge affords you a great view of the Fraser River. Hiking/Walking Trails are nearby and the area is relatively quiet depending on the day/time that you go.

As with most of these types of parks in BC, the facilities are few to none. I am never quite sure why this Province refuses to pave a simple parking lot and add some park benches here and there. The parking area is small and appears to be a free-for-all; that is, one person parks length wise, one person parks width wise, and ends up taking all of the parking spaces leaving none available.

I get it that this Province is environmentally extreme (some would say insane), but what's wrong with paving over the gravel and adding some lines so that parking is rectified so that people can actually visit the park?

Be aware that you do have to walk across an active train track; so look for trains before crossing. It would also be hard for someone in a scooter, wheel-chair, or with movement problems to make their way to the bridge without assistance. There is a hill that you have to walk down and walk up - for most individuals in average shape, this will pose no problems. But for movement problems, it might be of some concern.

But for a free attraction that has some spectacular views of the Fraser River and Canyon, Alexandra Bridge is worth the drive.
