This stunning, 3,000-foot long walkway stretches across the Missouri River, giving pedestrians a spectacular view of Omaha’s skyline and an almost airborne experience. Stand in two states at once over the Mighty Missouri River. We call it "Bobbing." On the Nebraska side, enjoy a 3-acre plaza with an interactive water jet fountain and access to the National Park Service Visitors Center. The bridge is connected to more than 150 miles of nature trails – visitors love to bike and walk on Bob. Pets are welcome!
