New Hampshire has roughly sixty-five covered bridges spread across the state. I say “roughly” because you never know when one will be washed away by a flood like Irene or from an arsonist’s fire. The historic structures are always under threat from Mother Nature or truckers how don’t know how to read height restriction signs.
Finding the covered bridges is a lot of fun. Some are right on the main roads while others take a bit of sleuthing to find down backroads or tucked in out of the way places.
One tip is to follow rivers and streams as bridges are built to cross water of course.
A copy of the Delorme Atlas and Gazetteer is a must as GPS units are often faulty in the backroads of New Hampshire.
There is also this website that lists all of the covered bridges – https://www.coveredbridgemap.com
Of course some covered bridges are much more photogenic than others. They are in various states of repair or simply are located in more picturesque settings. Getting a good photograph might mean visiting at a certain time of year or hiking down a steep bank of boulders to get a good view. Water might be high or low. Vegetation might block a view.
