The idea here is better than the execution, and the idea is very good. This elevated walkway carries you from Lumphini Park across to Benchakitti without touching a road, floating over a constructed wetland that was left to nature rather than paved. Runners, cyclists and walkers use it all day. Photographers like it too, and some people call the stretch the Green Mile. The best part might be the small shops below that send drinks up to walkers on a pulley system.
The complaints are real and worth hearing. Sections were still unfinished into 2026, with empty planting beds where trees should be and litter left behind by people who couldn't be bothered. There's also no lighting up there. If you turn up expecting a polished showpiece you'll be let down. Come instead for the walk itself, the different slices of Bangkok life you pass over, and the rare feeling of moving through the center of this city without a single traffic light.

Reviews from Google
*see @megsandalex IG for more Bangkok tips!* If you’re staying near one of Bangkok’s parks and reading this, then you’re probably looking to cross between both Lumpini & Benchakiti park! This bridge is situated just outside Lumpini park and will take across and into Benchakiti park. People call it the ‘Green Mile’ and is a great walk that takes you to the sky walk in Benchakiti. TOP TIP: along the green mile section there are small shops with pulley systems so they can send a drink up to you! Also go in the morning for best temperature and avoiding the heat of the day!
Still some construction work going on. But an absolutely great idea to connect the two main parks and leave the space between to nature, construct a wetland, very nice and easy to visit. One of the best things that happened in town during later years!
Update Feb 2026: Disappointing really. Still not finished. There are gaping holes where plants and trees should be. And lots of trash left up there by inconsiderate people. Update Dec 2025: it’s not officially open but you can walk along there now. Beware there is still no lighting. Update Oct 2025: Construction continues at a snail's pace with no visible progress in September. Update July 2025: Still closed while they install ramps etc. Watch out early mornings as there is no lighting and it's an obstacle course. Suggest the following diversion: take the turn from Wireless into Soi Ruamrudee then turn right at the end before the church - follow the Green Mile above you and go up the steps. Keep your eyes open for dog shit. Update May 2025: the signs say work was supposed to be completed by now but it is still like a construction site. Update April 2025. Walkway presently closed For renovations. The diversion takes you along the drainage canal beneath - try not to breathe through your nose - it reeks. Previously: Handy elevated walkway between Lumphini Park and Benjakitti Forest Park. Long overdue for a make-over. Views over traditional wooden houses.
