This place is beautiful! The scenery is amazing. The water is freezing but once you get used to it, the cliff diving gets super fun. 10/10 would reccomend for anyone who is wanting to have a fun day.

A must see while you can. Wear a swimsuit or boardshorts. Every level of jump from frightening to mild. The man is trying to close this place down but go by all means. The water is really cold. People are very nice here.

Very popular site but there is plenty of room you dont feel in the way of others. Beautiful, blue water yet clear you could see through. Rock edges to jump off of into the water. Highly recommend!

We go to the Bridge everytime we go to Durango, sometimes to swim. We have never gone in the winter. The sights were amazing. It was stunning during sunset. The river iced over and came up later downstream. Remarkably stunning

Awesome place to go jump at! Bout a 45 ft jump from the center left of the bridge (facing downriver). The jump spot is centered by Xs, one x on the left, one on the right. Jump between them and swim hard for the obvious bottom eddy.Have fun!

Sweet place to swim and jump into the water, though a bit sketchy with the water so low this year. Ask a local or watch someone else first to be safe. Saw some guys doing wild rope swing tricks from the bridge, looked fun but super scary!
