Milwaukee RiverWalk

A roughly 5-km path running through downtown along the Milwaukee River, linking the Third Ward, Downtown and the Beer Line, lined with sculptures and bars.

The RiverWalk follows the Milwaukee River from the Third Ward north to the Beer Line district, about 5 km in total. Along both banks are bar terraces, restaurants and public art, including the famous Bronze Fonz statue near Wells Street. In summer you can take a river tour boat or rent an electric boat, and in winter the path remains open for walking. It is free and open at all times, with access at any point, and it pairs well with the Public Market and the Third Ward.
