Fredericton's River Pathway

In Fredericton, New Brunswick, Terry and I discovered a river beautiful path that was being well-used the Sunday afternoon we arrived.

Cyclists, skateboarders and walkers like us were making use of it.

It was about two and a half kilometers downtown from our hotel - which was next to the path...

Walking along, we passed historic buildings, like this one - seen here from the path behind it...

Later we passed it on the road in front.

 Magnificent!








 

As we approached downtown Fredericton, there were several bridge options. A lot of walkers turned to cross the bridge that spanned the St. John River.

We took a footbridge that led downtown, where we hunted for a restaurant...

(The poles visible from the footbridge mark how high water levels peaked during different flood years... a reminder that all rivers do flood!

We again ate in an outdoor patio...

(I mention this because the following morning, the weather was a lot cooler!)

Later we returned along city streets.

There are so many lovely old buildings in downtown Fredericton.

Walking was a lovely way to see the city.
