The weir is a great place to visit and I highly recommend it. It's interesting to see the birds and all of the plants and animal life coalescing in one area. The Railway Bridge is a great bridge to walk on but you need to be careful and ensure that the railing is secure. There is a special ledge on the stairs leading up to the Railway Bridge that will help you to bring your your bike up on the bridge however I recommend walking your bike on this bridge because there are gaps between the the boards. So the Weir is a very popular place and there is public parking that is free however it is often very busy so I recommend parking on a street beside the weir if you find that there is no parking available. The Weir is nicely situated between the Railway Bridge and the university Bridge so if you just walk past the weir and go up the Railway Bridge heading east then you'll be able to start walking along the path that coincides with the University of Saskatchewan property and then you can walk west on the University Bridge then head north along the meewasin Valley Trail. It's a really nice walk. I think it takes about an hour or so, however you may come across some wildlife. I believe I've seeing coyotes on the east side of the road and there may be mosquitoes.

Enjoyed walking along weir and train bridge. Saw pelicans fishing which my four year old loved. After I introduced to her the "Pelly" book by David Glaze a local writer. Now she won't quit talking about the Saskatoon Weir

Nice trails to walk, run, jog or bike. Tou can take in the scenic view and observe the birds feeding down stream of the weir. Definitely spend a few hours here.

A great view of the Weir, Pelicans and the U of Sask and Spadina Cres. Nice walking paths and rest areas. Great views from the train bridge lookout.

Usually when I visit the weir, I’m also visiting the train bridge, so keep that in mind those of you who are weir enthusiasts. For myself, the weir is a part that is encompassed by the whole of the view of the river, either standing on the path beside it or from up on the train bridge. It is also nice for pelican spotting as they usually come to that area. As one who plays Pokemon Go, the weir is right next to two gyms & a Poke Stop. There is a second Poke Stop, but it is past the train bridge. Not that it’s far to walk to but it is not necessarily connected to the weir. With all of these things in mind, I would give the weir 5 stars. As the weir by itself: 3.5 / 5.
