Loved seeing all the covered bridges that have been so lovingly maintained, restored & loved over the decades. Such a great time seeing history while it still exists. Memorable towns and even more memorable people.

Bridgeton Covered Bridge

This 245-foot bridge is probably the most-photographed covered bridge in the Midwest.

This mill still runs. Its usually open and you can buy goods there that were made from the mill. There are old fashioned goods for purchase there and neat items to see there. The owner/operator is very knowledgeable and loves to share stories and the knowledge he has and answer questions. There is a lookout window there and you can get perfect view of the small waterfall and covered bridge from there. This has been kept as preserved as possible. The bridge was sadly a case of arson but the community rebuilt it to look like the original but you can not drive across it, walking only. This is a must place to visit. A Beautiful spot for photo shoots or just to get Beautiful shots of history and nature.

Wilkins Mill Covered Bridge

Reviewed By neltac

Parke County, IN is a wonderful place to visit to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of today's lifestyle. The baackroads are so beautiful and it is so nice to find all the bridges while following the map. You really have no fear of getting lost because the maps are so good. Normally one might be nervous about driving such remote roads, but, with the maps, it is very easy (for the most part) to find all the bridges and find your way around. We located all 31 bridges and this is the third time I have done this.
