The "S" Bridge in downtown Eau Claire.

Have you ever heard of the seven wonders of Eau Claire? Probably not, because we just made them up. But, what you can visit this summer are the seven footbridges of Eau Claire. Hop, skip, jump, bike, whatever you need to do! Check out the High Bridge – which connects trails from Roosevelt Elementary School to Forest Street, Phoenix Park Bridge – which is right in the center of downtown near the Eau Claire Farmers Market, Boyd Park Bridge – which was built in 1932, the S Bridge – which is, predictably, shaped like an “S,” Grand Ave. Bridge – which was originally built in 1910, the UW-Eau Claire Footbridge –which connects students from campus to Water Street, and – last but not least – the Clairemont Avenue Bridge – which was once a railroad bridge. Do ’em all in one day for some serious bridge-crossing action. Just watch out for trolls!
