One of our favorite things about Maine is the quirky attractions that are hidden throughout the state. From a giant sardine fisherman to an entire store dedicated to (and shaped like!) a blueberry, we definitely know how to stand out. We recently came across this bridge in York and the only way to describe it is absolutely lovable! It reminds us that life doesn’t always need to be so complicated. When things do get complicated, maybe you just need a simple wiggly bridge to make it better!

Located in York, The Wiggly Bridge is a lovely hidden way to explore the area.

The bridge was built in the 1930s and the area plays a part in York's history.
To the left of the bridge is the York River. The Barrell Mill is on the right.

The area was important for the original settlers because the same path leading from the road to the bridge was also a byway for farmers.

But, the best part of the Wiggly Bridge is truly the bridge itself!

As suspension bridges go, the wooden portion spans a teensy 75 feet and when you walk, the entire thing bounces and...you guessed it...wiggles!

While it's no longer allowed, jumping into the water was once a favorite activity.

But, even without the jumping, a trip to the Wiggly Bridge it worth it. Check out the Steedman Woods on the other end or simply enjoy the wiggles.

Visitors can access the bridge for free throughout the year. Parking is available on the eastbound portion of route 103.
