The Swiftwater Covered Bridge in Bath, NH is a charming 1849 Paddleford‑truss structure spanning the Wild Ammonoosuc River. With its classic corrugated metal roof, rustic vertical siding, and historic design, it feels like a step back in time. Visitors praise its scenic setting, photographic appeal—especially at dawn or autumn—and easy roadside access makes for a perfect quick stop.

Really cool covered bridge in New Hampshire with a spot to park for pictures. We looked at a couple other covered bridges in Vermont but we're unable to park nearby. You can hike down to the crick and get some unique picturesque photos too.
