Tour Wonderful Covered Bridges
Lane County, Oregon is the covered bridge capital of the Western United States.
Lane was the first county to build covered bridges on a large scale and still maintains more than any other county west of the Mississippi River.
A truss and housing design furnished by the State Highway Department was used for most, but not all, Lane County covered bridges. Sixteen bridges are owned and maintained by Lane County and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Fourteen of these are still open to traffic, a testimony to timely rehabilitation and continued good maintenance.
Oregon covered bridges are typically built of native Douglas fir. They were covered to protect them from the rainy weather.
This approximately tripled the lifespan of a wooden bridge. Many of Oregon's covered bridges have been preserved, and are popular visitors' attractions.
All Lane County covered bridges are easy to visit by automobile. No federal funds go to any Lane County covered bridge.
The South Lane area has the majority of those within the County. The South Lane bridges are well marked for a tour that begins in the City of Cottage Grove.
The bridge closest to The Row River Cabin is the Dorena Covered Bridge:
This bridge is located just past the east end of Dorena Reservoir on Shoreview DR. From Cottage Grove take Row River RD east, past Dorena Reservoir, to Dorena Covered Bridge.
Next is the Currin Covered Bridge, located on Laying Rd. at Row River RD.
Also nearby is the Mosby Creek Covered Bridge. It spans Mosby Creek near the opposite end of Laying RD. It can be reached easily from Cottage Grove by Mosby Creek RD.
The Stewart Covered Bridge is located farther South on Mosby Creek Rd at Garoutte Rd.
Also nearby, inside the City of Cottage Grove, is the Chambers Covered Railroad Bridge, the only covered railroad bridge in Oregon. Not far away is the Centennial Covered Footbridge in downtown Cottage Grove.
