there even were parts of it closed up; but we didn't know that until we walked a long way...really, this might be fun in summer/nice weather, but on this sunny but cool fall day, there was nothing to visit and nothing to enjoy all along the walk...sorry; not a reason in my mind, to come back to
If you are in Milwaukee you must do the Riverwalk. Beautiful Holiday lights this time of year. There are so many places to stop along the riverwalk, if you want to eat, drink, or shop the Riverwalk has it all. Fun times with friends and Family.
This walk is on both sides of river and covers six blocks. There are restaurants and some shops along the way. You may see an occasional sculpture.
We were looking for a nice way to walk off the amazing brat and beers from The German Beer Hall and this was perfect!
There are many venues along the Milwaukee River walk from restaurants and cafes, to theaters with live entertainment and concerts, as well as business venues and shopping. The walk itself is fairly new and you can also see the bronze "Fonzie" statue, from the "Happy Days" TV Series which was based on the Milwaukee area. Fonzie himself has actually visited the site. The river itself offers tour boats and you will see many docks along the way where a wide variety of boats and yachts are anchored. It is one on my favorite places because of the actrivity, and outdoor options it offers.
Lovely place to be, especially when the climate is good and when its little dusky out there. Looks beautiful at night with all the lights coming up and restaurants besides the riverwalk calling you for more.
The Milwaukee Riverwalk is a recent addition to Milwaukee's cityscape. It is an unqualified success. It is beautiful at dusk or at night. There are plenty of eateries, bars, and coffee shops along true walk. My only warning is that some of the boaters on passing boats can be annoying when they have consumed too much alcohol.
Milwaukee is a great city to visit clean up to date lots of place to see inside and out Great restaurants and The BEST coffee ever. the lake is awesome summer and winter
The river's not particularly beautiful or anything, but it's a nice place to go for a walk. Lots of restaurants along the way as well, along with the Bronz Fonz and Gertie the Duck, make it a quick but worthwhile experience.
Great to walk at lunch time and see the frozen river in winter and ducks in summer. Several restaurants have outdoor seating at the river. Enjoy
