Richmond, VA Preview: Walking the Iconic Bridges and Banks of the James

In Richmond, VA, the James River isn't just a waterway—it’s a playground of history. You’ve got all kinds of bridges to wander: right down the middle of the highway, tucked underneath it, or even a quiet little footbridge all to yourself.
But we’re not just staying on the bridges! We'll be exploring the rugged riverbanks of James River Park, where the city’s industrial past meets nature. Everywhere you look, there are railroad trestles and weathered stone piers where bridges used to be. It’s so easy to picture the days when horse-drawn carriages, steam trains, and antique cars all crossed these paths.
This is just a teaser—I’m scouting the perfect route that combines those sweeping skyline views with the peaceful riverside trails. A detailed plan and itinerary will be announced soon. Stay tuned!
