This cute bridge is the smallest covered bridge in New Hampshire. It was built in 1974 and carried road traffic until 1955. Now it can only be crossed by foot, but it makes for a great photo opportunity as it is right next to the road.

It is worth taking the Old Connecticut River Road to pass through the riverside rural idyll. There are great views of the river all along its length, and a sense of space and calm.

Claremont sits on the Sugar River, which was responsible for powering its textile industry past and its hydropowered present. As the only city in Sullivan County, it is a good place to visit on a ride to refuel in one of its many cafés.
