A wonderful historic site. Started being Build in 1931. It's a very neat bridge to cross. At the end north side is very cool. You can climb the small mountain to a epic view on the other side.
The bridge is durable and the view from the other side is very good and refreshing. You may climb up the hills to have a wonderful view of the area. The suspension bridge has already been used as a lock bridge. A few have placed some locks on the interlink. Just be careful in crossing and going up and back.
Very beautiful bridge and surrounding area. Just a little bit out of town on the way to the hoodoos. Great pictures of the bridge and sunrise can be taken from the river and also from above on the hills surrounding the area. Make sure to head to the top of the closest hill to get a look at the old wooden structures of past bridges!!
This is an absolutely fantastic bridge. While it is very simplistic in its chain-link design, it offers a lot in history and character. Crossing the Star Mine Suspension Bridge is an experience in itself. The bridge sways, bounces, and rocks as you cross it and with only suspension as it’s support, it can be quite exhilarating. As you cross the bridge, it gives you a new perspective of the badlands; suspended over the Red Deer river. Lots to explore around the area, which is only made possible with the Star Mine Suspension Bridge. Wonderful bridge. 5 stars.
Great place to have a picnic. The walk across the bridge was enjoyable. Not much else to see, really. But do take in the natural scenery when you’re standing in the middle of the bridge, or on the other side.
If you are visiting Drumheller, this is one of the best places you should visit. This is an old suspension bridge, but well maintained. Parking is free but really limited parking available. You can cross the river and can access badlands. Also i was able to kayak too and the viwe from the river was also amazing.
Difficult to find, small parking lot. The bridge has a capacity of 20 people but it is not regulated or monitored, we watched a tour bus full of people walk across at once. The hiking and climbing on the other side was pretty good. Somebody we were with said they heard a rattlesnake down by the river, I cannot attest to that though personally.
A quick stop for a quick walk over the Red Deer river. It's a suspension bridge so be prepared for the movement. Heavy duty suspension and its well maintained by the government. No charge to use it. Lots of parking. A sign explains the bridge's history. Nice stop especially for a family. I wish there was a snack booth there to stop and stay a while, but without one there is no reason to spend more than 15 minutes here. Location is south of Drum, so if you are going to see the Hoodoos, you'll pass right by this place. Pull over and walk over the bridge, it's a great view and you'll burn off a few more calories.
Lots of history here with various information signs in the larger parking lot. The bridge is well made and there is a bit of a thrill going over it. There are various places available to have a picnic.
The interpretive sign above the bridge is really what made this place interesting for me. I've been on suspension bridges before and this one is not particularly scary, though it was a lovely day and a fun experience. Nothing to see on the other side - though based on the few bits of broken glass on the ground, this is likely an evening party spot. There are clean pit toilets here, along with ample parking.
