A word of advice: Links are provided that contain a lot of information about each
of these covered bridges. But take the directions with a grain of salt. The guy who
wrote them doesn't seem to know the difference between North and East... many of the
directions are vague or misleading... and in some cases downright wrong. So do your
homework as we did and be prepared to do some scouting to find some of these bridges.

All the pictures posted on this segment have GPS information included in each photo's
metadata. If your browser has the appropriate plugin, you can right click each photo
and bring up the location on your favorite Internet mapping tool (e.g. Google Maps).
You'll find that it's a LOT easier to find these bridges with good directions, a really
good map and accurate GPS coordinates.

You can also click on many of these pictures to enlarge them.

A Linn/Lane County map (free from AAA if you are a member) can also be a real help. If you
visit the bridges in the order that they are displayed here, you will travel about 55
miles from bridge one to bridge ten.


Oregon covered bridge overview



The above "covered bridge tour route" signs were not here when we
did this tour in 2013. Be advised that they are inconsistently placed
so you probably shouldn't depend on seeing a sign at all of the turns.
They are certainly helpful and a welcome improvement from they way it
used to be, but still.... if you're planning on a covered bridge tour,
be prepared and do your research.
