As the name of the highlight says, this is an "interesting shaped bridge."

This distinctive zig-zag bridge was completed in 2024 through a collaborative design effort between Scott County Parks and Three Rivers Park District’s in-house landscape architects and engineers.

The zig-zag layout serves several purposes. From an engineering standpoint, it helps the boardwalk resist lateral movement in the soft, wetland soil. Visually, the pattern is more appealing than the straight, parallel lines of a conventional bridge. Functionally, it slows foot traffic and creates natural pockets where nature observers can pause without blocking the trail for other visitors.
