Historic steel bridge across the American River, reserved to car-free travel by bike or foot. Opens to the Sacramento Northern Bike Trail, along a former railway route.

There is a big homeless camp on the midtown side of Pipe's Bridge. The tents are on both sides of the bike trail so close the edges of the tents are on the paved trail. Be aware! There are lots of loose aggressive dogs. The dogs come out of the tents and you have no time to react. I hope this area gets cleaned up because it is no longer a safe access to the American River Bike Trail. Bring a lot of pepper spray and be prepared to use it or find another route.
