The 16 Bridges of Polk County
The northern 17-mile half of the Frisco Highline Trail travels through Polk County, and includes sixteen bridges along its route. These very same bridges used to carry trains, but today bicyclists, runners, and walkers cross over these historic structures instead. Each bridge is unique and we're sure you'll enjoy discovering each one as you explore the beautiful northern section of the trail!
