This bridge on a gravel portion of a hiking trail, connects about 200 metres away to the Skunk Cabbage Boardwalk. Once on the boardwalk you get an opportunity to see plant and animal life in a valley bottom wetland.
"A 1.2 km trail and boardwalk leads you over a swamp inhabited by muskrat, beaver, skunk cabbage and a host of birds. Signs help you identify the plants and animals you see along the way. This fascinating place is at its best from May through July. Trailhead is at the Skunk Cabbage Picnic Area, 28 km east of Revelstoke on the Trans Canada Highway."

The trail is mostly an elevated wood boardwalk with minor sections of pea gravel/dirt.
