Come explore the Covered Bridges of Columbia & Montour Counties! Picturesque and historic, they recall a time when life was simpler and closer to the land. On a yearly basis, visitors from all over the world come to admire the antique craftsmanship of the bridges and relax in the quiet countryside. Symbols of small-town America, these covered bridges coax travelers off the beaten path to explore little streams and forgotten dirt roads. Embark upon your own journey through the beautiful PA countryside with this FREE mobile passport and experience all 25 of the area’s iconic covered bridges in person.
As an added bonus, you’ll receive a special commemorative gift (mailed to you at no cost) once you’ve checked in at 13 of the bridges. This year, participants will receive a handmade wooden ornament designed as a model replica of the West Paden Covered Bridge. Participants will also receive a commemorative embroidered covered bridge patch, while supplies last.
And, for the true covered bridge enthusiasts out there who check in at all 25 bridges, we’ve got a grand prize package drawing waiting for one lucky recipient. The grand prize will feature an original covered bridge pastel painting from a local artist, Pam Thomas, and a two night stay in Benton, PA at the luxurious Wandell Inn. Please remember that all check-ins must be completed by December 31, 2024 to be counted toward your grand prize entry. The grand prize drawing will take place in January, 2025.
