This Scenic Day Trip in Pennsylvania Will Lead You to 5 Fabulous Covered Bridges

This Pennsylvania day trip will lead you to five beautiful covered bridges. Enjoy the scenic landscape of Lancaster County as you travel from stop to stop.

The Jackson's Sawmill Covered Bridge or Eichelberger's Covered Bridge spans the West Branch of the Octoraro Creek in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The bridge is purportedly the only covered bridge in the county that is not built perpendicular to the stream it crosses due to the placement of the sawmill on one side of the bridge and the rock formations faced by the builders on the other side. The bridge has a single span, wooden, double Burr arch trusses design with the addition of steel hanger rods. The deck is made from oak planks.
