Read on to learn more about this fun way to explore a part of Vermont with your friends and family.
As you can see from the map, the bridges are within two miles of each other. Even though they're so close, you easily spend the day taking photos, walking around the bridges, and getting your feet wet in the water.
Along with being the longest covered bridge in the country, this landmark sits above the dam used to power the local community. And, as the name suggests, it was the site of one of the Green Mountain state's first paper mills.
Like many covered bridges in Vermont, the inner structure is made with timber-trusses.
