The Bridge to Nowhere Walk in Whanganui National Park takes you on a 3km return journey to an abandoned bridge that was meant to connect remote farms but never saw much use.

You can access the bridge site by a gentle walk from Mangapurua Landing. It's a cool spot with a bit of history that is worth checking out!
