Covered Bridges Are Always In Season

The allure of the covered bridges in New England is real. For those of us who call Vermont + New England home, the covered bridge is still something to behold, appreciate and photograph 🤣

The covered bridges of the Green Mountains star on postcards, social media, and in the stories about our state for a reason – they're beautiful, historic, and unique. Vermont is home to more than 100 covered bridges, boasting more covered bridges per square mile than any other U.S state.

Some bridges date from 1820 (the original Pulp Mill Bridge across Otter Creek in Middlebury), with most constructed during the mid and late 19th Century. Among them is the Windsor Cornish Covered Bridge which spans the Connecticut River between Windsor, Vermont, and Cornish, New Hampshire. At 465 feet, it is the longest two-span-covered bridge in the world and the longest wooden bridge in the United States.

Vermont's covered bridges are the settings for ghost stories, weddings, peaceful drives, some of our most beautiful photography, and memories that will last a lifetime.
