Waggoner Covered Bridge

Loysville County, Pennsylvania

Nestled in Loysville, Pennsylvania, the Waggoner Covered Bridge stands as a testament to 19th-century craftsmanship. Built in 1889, this historic structure features a Burr truss design—a construction method combining an arch with a multiple kingpost truss for superior strength.

Current Status: The bridge is permanently closed to all traffic and pedestrians.

Visiting Tips: While you cannot cross the bridge, it remains a worthwhile photography destination. The weathered wooden exterior photographs beautifully, especially during autumn when surrounding foliage provides dramatic contrast. Early morning offers soft lighting and minimal crowds. Respect all closure barriers and view from designated areas only.

Note: Verify current site accessibility before visiting, as conditions may change.
