Beautiful designed bridge that connects Charleston to Mt. Pleasant. There’s a walk path that goes the length of the bridge. Best part is no toll.

Brilliant design which stands out in the distance of the Charleston skyline. However, what makes this bridge really unique is the public footpath for walking, running and cycling. Well worth a jog over.

I once drove our public school bus across the old Cooper River bridge to deposit it in Mount Pleasant for the summer, from Summerville - I was in the 11th grade! Times have changed, and so has the bridge. Both are beautiful in their own way!

An interesting and beautiful walk. For much of it, because you don't see the piers and you sense some movement due to traffic, it feels like you are walking on a floating concrete path.

My wife and i decided to walk across the bridge early Friday morning. What a fun and enjoyable walk. The temperature was a little cool in the morning but once we got our heart rate up we were fine.
We were greeted by pretty much everyone we came across with much friendliness.

Great experience to be at the top - center of the bridge. If you’re in Charleston, try hiking on the bridge, a great view of the peninsula up there

Nearing the end of a great cruise in the waters surrounding Charleston. The bridge stands out in stark contrast to this beautiful historic city.

Great bridge walk, run, ride. Only entered from the north side. Lots of free parking underneath. Supposed to be walkers one one lane, bikes in other. Lots of people have problems with that concept.
