A green jewel in the heart <strong>of</strong> the city, <strong>Burnt</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong><br />
Greenway begins at the northwest end <strong>of</strong> Stewart Glen,<br />
at the mouth <strong>of</strong> <strong>Burnt</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> at Fruit Valley and<br />
NW Bernie Drive. This shared-use, hard-surface trail<br />
<strong>of</strong>fers excellent opportunities for walking, biking,<br />
jogging, commuting, and wildlife viewing. It meanders<br />
east along the creek through thick forests and grass<br />
bottomlands, and crosses over two bridges to end at<br />
Hazel Dell Avenue. On-street bike routes and sidewalks<br />
continue the route southeast to Kiggins Bowl, the Ellen<br />
Davis <strong>Trail</strong>, and Leverich Park. The eastern section,<br />
begining at Devine Road allows walkers and bikers to<br />
travel almost eight miles from Stewart Glen in the west<br />
to 92nd Avenue in the east.<br />
