The Big River Crossing provides a 1-mile long bridge across the Mississippi River, offering stunning views of downtown Memphis and a chance to connect with nature. The trail is ideal for walking, jogging, and exercise, with the option to rent electric bikes. However, construction on I-55 on the Memphis side may present access challenges. The trail can be accessed from either side, with the Arkansas side being the last exit before the river when heading east towards Memphis. Extending to Mariana, Arkansas, the trail adds value to the city. While the bridge walkway itself may not be extraordinary, the views of downtown Memphis and the experience of crossing the Mississippi River make it a worthwhile outdoor activity. Overall, the Big River Crossing provides a refreshing and beautiful experience for outdoor enthusiasts.
