Bedford, Pennsylvania has over a dozen covered bridges. We were there for just a day so we only saw one and it’s a nice one.

Claycomb Covered Bridge stands at the entrance to Old Bedford Village. The village was still closed for the season but we were still able to park and look around the bridge.

According to their tourism bureau, the bridge was built in 1880 in another location and later moved to its present location on 1975.

The Burr Truss design was reinforced with steel to accommodate the larger vehicles that pass through here on their way to the village.

Despite being so close to the main highway into Bedford and the Turnpike which sits high above this spot, it’s surprisingly peaceful.

If you’re in the area, plan to see this and all the others via a driving tour created by the visitors center. Get information here!
