Felton, a quaint town at the base of the Santa Cruz Mountains, has two beautiful covered bridges for visitors to see. The one pictured here is located at @roaringcamp where you can take a steam train into the redwood forests. Felton’s covered bridge park just around the corner is another gorgeous and historic covered bridge you have to add to your Santa Cruz County bucket list! Have you seen both of Felton’s covered bridges?

I'm glad we stopped by before we left the Felton area. It's a simple park with a playground for kids. The bridge itself is surprisingly large. It's a neat part of history. You can see where there've been renovations to keep it up. We didn't follow the trail further, but I understand there are stables with various animals. If you are passing through Felton and want to stretch your legs, make sure to make this the spot you do. Worth it.

Not a very attractive covered bridge due to where it situated. The bridge itself are only but the surrounding area are not very pretty! The park have a small children’s playground which was nice and I do see few young families are enjoying this playground! There also about half dozen of picnic table by the creek with couple of BBQ rack! Parking space is limited to about 30 spaces, it will be very crowded during the summer time I believe!

This is a must see in Felton! Built in 1892-93 and believed to be the tallest covered bridge in the country, it stood as the only entry to Felton for 45 years. In 1937 it was retired from active service to become a pedestrian bridge and figured prominently in many films of that period. After suffering damage in the winter storms of 1982, it was restored to its original elegance in 1987 using native materials and local talent.

This is a nice family friendly park. However, I am rating it only 4 stars. One star is lost for a couple of reasons. One reason is that the bathroom is just portapotties. Gross!! Second reason is my wife got hurt when she stepped on a bee and got stung. I did however enjoy walking over the covered bridge with our 6 year old son.

Great little park nestled among the Redwoods and the restored Old Covered Bridge. Porta potties available and a water fountain for the hot days. Great little circular path surrounding the grassy area, good for walking your dog or teaching your kid to ride their bike. Shopping, food, and Drug Store within walking distance.
