We ventured down the roads less traveled in search of the 20 covered bridges in Lane County, a county that has the distinction of possessing more covered bridges than any other county west of the Mississippi. Seventeen of these bridges are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Be sure to download the Covered Bridge Brochure before heading out.
A Willamette Valley Bed And Breakfast is a great place to start. We first traveled west of the I5 interstate for a the bridges on the west side then headed east on Hwy 58, finding 6 along this road. Take a trip back in time and discover all Lane County has to offer.
For the geocachers among us, I have found caches at over 20 of these bridges on the Oregon Covered Bridge Tours.
