We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Santa Ana River Trail Foot Bridge yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about Santa Ana River Trail Foot Bridge

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (12 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

These bridges are an integral part of the Santa Ana River Trail (SART). It is somewhat intuitive to cross them to continue along the SART. As the trail is continuous, and you want to traverse a portion or the whole thing, in order to do so, these bridges must be crossed.

★★★★★ — Doug , Jul 2021

Excellent trail for cycling. I usually start @ Huntington beach, go all the way to Angel's Stadium & return. A good 30+ miles. Make sure to check wind speed & direction prior to your cycling exercise as it might be inconvenient if it was windy. There are a lot of resting spots on the road. Safe & clean.
