Walking From Manhattan To Brooklyn And Back
By Rob Safuto on May 4, 2025 in Blog, Q & A
Henry from Poland sent me a question about my recent Brooklyn Bridge video.
I liked the post about the Brooklyn Bridge trip. It also made me think of a question to you. Is it possible to make a walking trip, crossing Brooklyn Bridge from Manhattan, walk up to Manhattan Bridge (my map shows it’s only a few blocks) and come back to the Manhattan borough using Manhattan Bridge.
You can most definitely do this. In fact, when you are walking across the Brooklyn Bridge from Brooklyn you see a sign for the Manhattan Bridge walking path as well. Based on the map below I estimate the distance of the trip to be about 2.5 miles, assuming your starting point is at City Hall in Manhattan.

Rob, thank you for such a quick reply. 2.5 miles doesn’t sound like too much, considering the sites one can see.
This walking trip is definitely going to find its way to my next year’s visit itinerary.
Thank you.
