Ever since the skywalk was constructed in 2011 users have explored the history of the bridge and tornado at the kinzua bridge state park visitor center and park office. The viaduct once the longest and tallest railroad structure at 2 053 feet long and 301 feet high was partially destroyed by a tornado during 2003. The kinzua sky walk extends out 624 feet into the kinzua gorge offering panoramic views. The kinzua viaduct was once the highest and longest railroad viaduct in the world.

Today the 600 feet of bridge that survived has become one of the state s most spectacular sky walks promising visitors a stunning view of the forest floor and the remains of the bridge scattered haphazardly some 300 feet below. A picnic pavilion makes a great home base for leisurely strolls 600 feet out onto the sky walk where you can gaze across miles of breathtaking scenery view mangled support towers and peer down into the kinzua gorge through a glass floor at the end of the walkway. But despite the vicious storm part of the kinzua bridge refused to collapse. The kinzua bridge state park visitor center is a state of the art building facility that will orient visitors to the kinzua bridge as well as the surrounding area.

The 339 acre kinzua bridge state park located in mckean county is the home of the reinvented kinzua viaduct. From here users can access the 600 foot pedestrian walkway with the track still intact.
