A very unique bridge. It was an enjoyable visit. It was quite interesting to see the silt line constantly moving where the two bodies of water came together. It was easily accessible and very beautiful scenery. In the middle where all three bridges intersect, there are benches where you can sit and relax. Definitely a place to see since it is the only one in the U.S.

I mean this is a really nice bridge that connects three banks of one park across a river. The bridge is very nice and still feels like a recent construction. There are some nice benches in the middle. The only complaint that I have was how slippery the bridge was in the places where it had frosted over. I am sure on a warm day this will go away quickly but not on the typical fall day as it was when I visited.

Fun place to visit. There are parks on a couple of sides of the structure. On the north side, where the farmers market used to be, there is plenty of parking and it is walking distance from part of downtown where there is dining available. We visited in August 2020. There was dining set up on the streets that is walking distance from The Tridge.

The tridge. What can I say about this spot in Midland. Its beautiful. The city has done a great job with the landscaping, flowers and all that. Very peaceful next to the rivers. The rail trail starts here. Lots of events in the warm months. Always a lot of people here on nice days. Im not real happy about that part but it must mean a lot of people enjoy the area as well I guess. If your visiting town check it out.

A truly unique structure offering access to several different recreational areas including ball fields, play grounds, a skate park, a farmers market, and the Pere Marquette Rail Trail. We picked up lunch at a downtown Midland restaurant and headed to the area to find a picnic table. We enjoyed a walk over all three legs of The Tridge after our meal. We are looking forward to returning with the kids.

Fun. You can see the two rivers merge. One river is cloudy/sandy/murky; the other looks clear, you can see the two merge.

Uniquely crafted 3 sided bridge that connects over the Chippewa and Tittabawassee rivers. Nice wide path for you to ride your bikes, walk or jog over. It connects to Chippewassee family park on one side and St. Charles Park. As well the Farmers Market on the 3rd side.

A fun stop in Midland, Michigan. The Tridge is a three way bridge that crosses the river and lets you have access to three distinct areas of Midland: the downtown core passing right by The H Hotel, the softball fields and the trails though the park.There is a playground for children with a small splash pad.

It’s always a pleasure to head downtown. After the recent floods I was worried that there would be a lot of damage, but I was surprised! It was cleaned up and made ready to go, the city maintains it very well.

Interesting to see, three bridges meeting in the middle. We walked out over where the two rivers met. To be honest, it was a cold and windy day, so we didnt stay out there long.

Review №41

This is a very interesting foot bridge that splits where 2 rivers meet. Very unique! So glad we stopped here. On a day where the weather is a bit more cooperative it would have been a great photo op.

We’ve driven by The Tridge so many times on the way from here to there (we live in the thumb) but have never actually stopped until today. We are really glad we did! What a fantastic place! For those that don’t understand what “The Tridge” is - technically it is 3 brides that come together into one. It’s beautiful. I read that they recently did a reno on it - and it is well worth it! All I can say is, WOW! It looks fantastic! Beautifully done. But The Tridge is so much more than just the three bridges. It’s the beautiful parks that surround it, it’s the rivers, and it’s the people. Midland is full of some very friendly, outgoing, authentic folks. They are kind and down to earth. They stop to say hello and interact with you. They smile and laugh and are just out enjoying the day, and they don’t mind sharing it with you. I enjoy this about Midland. So today, we walked along The Tridge where families were out enjoying a beautiful summer day. They were out riding bikes and scooters. People were running and walking. People stopped to chat and interact. When our young son was afraid his dog would leap from The Tridge, a woman stopped to talk to him, to reassure him that she wouldn’t, that it was impossible for her to. She didn’t have to, but she took the time out of her day to. Thank you again, wherever you are. There is a place in the park where kayakers and canoers can put in to paddle on the Tittabawassee and Chippewa Rivers, or it looks like you can even rent them. There were people lounging in hammocks in the shade of the trees. There is a Farmers Market, not open while we were there. And it looked as though there may have been a splash pad, but I’m not positive on that one. All in all, The Tridge is a great place to spend any day! Run, relax, read a book, paddle the river, take a walk, go for a bike ride, go fishing, meet a friend, make a new one, whatever your pleasure, just go do it!

One of the first places I visited when I moved here a year ago, and one of the most visited places since. Its calming, open to exploration, and absolutely stunning first thing in the morning. Its my favorite place to show people that havent been here before.

What can I say about a three leg bridge?The bridge is very unique and you can sit in the center of it after walking down each side. There are park areas off each of the legs for you to play and have fun.The parking is free and they have a doggie water fountain in the vicinity of the parking lot so your dog can drink.You can do a 360 degree photo and have someone pose at each of the bridge openings in one continuous shot.... just for fun.

Its really just a pedestrian bridge, but its kinda a cool spot to sit over the confluence of the rivers. The parks on the three banks are nice places to walk or run. Worth a visit, and a nice feature for Midland to have.

The Tridge is a beautiful place to walk, ride your bike, or skate. There are paved trails in 3 directions on which to go exploring. There is also a farmers market on Wednesday and Saturday mornings Spring, Summer and Fall. And there are outdoor concerts on Thursday evenings during the Summer. The tridge is surrounded by fun spots, a splash park and downtown Midland are located on one side, and on the opposite side you will find a skate park, a dog park and a playground. The rail trail runs right through the area.

Looking for a different place to go while in the boring Midland Michigan this is a great place to go. This different tri-bridge is fun to go too with a farmers market at one end, trails on another, and a park and and skate park at the other. With statues every where and other fun activities in the summer you wont regret it
