Accidentaly we stumbled upon this bridge while doing some research of our roadtrip to New England and Canada. As we were driving from Ben & Jerrys in Waterbury to Boston, MA, we made a detour to see this bridge. We've read that covered bridge is something very typical for New England and we just couldn't leave without seeing one of those.This is a mgnificent covered bridge showing a lot of history. I just love that it's still in use and it is a place telling lots of stories. Just nearby the eastern opening of the bridge there is a short information telling tre story of the bridge!

We drove over the bridge and took pictures from the New Hampshire side. Georgeous setting on the river.

Visited the Harpoon Brewery and accidently ran across this bridge. There is a cool paking spot on the NH side and the view is nice of the covered bridge to drive across.

Perfect condition....a bit of history right here in our time. The longest covered bridge. You can still drive over it, takes you from Windsor VT to Cornish NH.

It's just a few minutes from Harpoon, worth a quick bounce over. The bridge is the longest 2-lane covered bridge in the world. The bridge spans the Connecticut river, and if you are in the area in Vermont or New Hampshire, you gotta drive over it. It's free, and cool. The sign over the bridge notes, Walk your horse or pay a $2 fine. It's a nice bit of Americana, go see and imagine all the history this bridge has seen.

Rode across the bridge a couple of times to get the full experience. Two way traffic inside the bridge is quite manageable and seems to withstand the daily load. Only understood more recently that covered bridges are covered not for the benefit of the travelers but to protect the wood contraction from the rain water which will rot it. This bridge is the loges wooden bridge in the United States.

Cross the Connecticut River from New Hampshire to Vermont (or vice versa) over this long covered bridge. Definitely worth the drive if you are in the area and looking for those quaint things from a bygone era.

You encounter this bridge suddenly as you travel along the country road and are blown away by the simple beauty of its construction. It takes you right into the past as you drive over the wooden floorboards.

A lovely drive across the river. Several places before and after the bridge to take photos. Wish there had been a placard before going across the bridge to tell the bridge's significance. Glad we saw the bridge.
