Spanning Loyalsock Creek in Sullivan County, the Hillsgrove Covered Bridge stands as one of Pennsylvania’s oldest surviving covered bridges. Built in 1850, this historic structure features a distinctive covered arch truss design that has weathered over 170 years of use.

The bridge remains open to traffic today, serving as a functional connection for the small community of Hillsgrove. Its dark interior contrasts beautifully with the surrounding forested hillsides, making it a favorite among photographers.

Visiting Tips: For the best photos, arrive during early morning or late afternoon when soft light illuminates the weathered wooden exterior. Fall foliage season offers spectacular backdrops. The bridge’s continued use by vehicles adds authentic character—listen for the distinctive rumble of cars crossing the wooden deck.
