west cornwall covered bridge

Went here with our LEMC in August, very nice, fun to drive through and a great little destination for motorcyclists. Parking is a bit tough, we just parked along the street down the block. Very picturesque, serene

Hubby and I rode here on our motorcycles from Ellington, CT -- it was a great ride passing farms and small towns along the way....and found this gem at the other end of our ride! -- Beautiful place to stop and take pictures....sit and relax on the benches found along the roaring river banks....lots of natural beauty here with flowers - NO Traffic, very quiet - nice people in this area.

It's 150 years old this year. Although it has been reinforced and repaired several timed, it rattles wonderfully if you cross it in a car. Driving or better walking you'll feel like your back in the nineteenth century.

Its such a wonderful bridge to see. A step back in time. Right on the Housatonic River. Not much parking and often not cowded

With only hopes that it would be worth the drive into CT from the Berkshires we arrived at this stunningly-beautiful tiny town and crossed the covered bridge - parked and just stared at the magnificence of this form of art that still stands - simply gorgeous!! A must stop!!

A beautiful and well maintained covered bridge in a picturesque setting in rural New England and less than 10 miles from the scenic Kent Falls.

My favorite covered bridge in all of West Cornwall. It is fun to drive over and even more fun to canoe under it on the mighty Housatonic.

A lovely spot on the Housatonic River.Sit in a bench by the river, shop in nearby unique shops, eat at the Wandering Moose Cafe.

Just what I always imagined New England in the fall to be. What a beautiful part of the world. So quiet, quaint, charming, I could go on. An easy, pretty drive also. A must see if you're visiting the area.

i have been going there for over 20 years in my treks thru Dutchess county NY- if U want to see one of the few countries covered bridges it's authentic and quaint- the beautiful Housatonic river and flyfishing spots- the foliage is beautiful- it's not to miss

a lovely landmark in the northwest corner. if you are a photography buff, this is a terrific destination. also nice to walk through and explore the town of West Cornwall. all times of the year are beautiful, but especially the autumn.

Gorgeous spot to watch kayakers, the river, wander around town. lovely area, worth a day trip from the city.

My friend and I were wandering on a day trip through this part of Cn and were delighted that our route took us by this bridge (our second of the day after Kent). It is really quite picturesque! After shooting a few pics, we stopped for a late lunch at the Wandering Moose cafe so that we had a chance to enjoy it a bit longer.

I drive across this bridge every day driving home from work. It crosses the Housatonic River, and depending on the season, you can watch kayak races, or sit at the Wandering Moose's patio and eat lunch, or dodge the tourists photographing the bridge. It's a treasure.

We enjoyed our stop here to look at the bridge. It was a popular bridge as traffic kept coming and going so we weren't able to walk onto it to get a better look at it, but we were able to take pictures from the sides. The view of the hills and river were nice. The area leading up to the bridge was well kept and made it nice to explore. We even saw a few people fly fishing in the river.It was worth the stop, but if you had time to only see one bridge I would wait and see Bull's Bridge just a little to the South.
