October 26, 2021 Lean Nau

The history of Bethel is a long one. The town was founded by settlers granted the land as a reward for fighting to conquer Canada way back in 1690. Now a quiet resort town, full of quaint shops and tranquil streets, Bethel is a popular destination all year round. Just five miles from the Sunday River Ski Resort, the most popular winter sports area in all of Maine, the charming B&Bs of Bethel are the perfect place to rest up after taking on 131 trails on 8 different mountain peaks.

Sunday River Covered Bridge

A covered bridge built in 1872 that is said to be one of the most painted and photographed covered bridges in Maine.

This bridge is a must see while visiting the area of Bethel, Maine. Just a few miles outside of the Town of Bethel, it is quaint and in great shape!. Tucked on the side of the road and sits over a quite, slow moving clear stream below. Easy walks from the bridge to the water and a nearby walking trail that takes you further down stream. Very New England!
