Turkey Run State Park hiking trail (foot traffic only) AKA Narrows Covered Bridge
Modern concrete bridge directly behind the original covered one (notice the arches).
Downstream view
Built in 1882. The purpose of covering the bridge was to extend the life of the wooden supporting beams (safety).
60th Annual Parke County, Indiana Covered Bridge Festival
Two weeks starting the second Friday in October.
We missed the crowds on a rainy afternoon, drove over this bridge named “Rolling Stone” built in 1915 and took these photos.
