What you can expect

Set out on a 4.5-mile guided hike through the natural beauty nestled within city centre Richmond. Admire the rushing water of James River from pedestrian bridges. Across the river, catch a glimpse of bygone eras with ruins on Belle Isle and see the repurposed Pipeline Walk on Brown’s Island.
Meet your guide and begin your tour by crossing the James River, pausing to admire the Class IV rushing rapids of Richmond’s waterway from one of the city’s unique pedestrian bridges. Next, you’ll explore the Manchester Climbing Wall Park, built on top of 150-year-old train bridge ruins.
Continue your hike along the path on Belle Isle. The trails here lead past ruins that hearken back to the Civil War and the industrial age. Soak up the tranquility of the surrounding nature, then cross a second pedestrian bridge to discover the city’s hidden gem on Brown’s Island, the Pipeline Walk.
