A covered bridge built in 1872 that is said to be one of the most painted and photographed covered bridges in Maine.
This bridge is a must see while visiting the area of Bethel, Maine. Just a few miles outside of the Town of Bethel, it is quaint and in great shape!. Tucked on the side of the road and sits over a quite, slow moving clear stream below. Easy walks from the bridge to the water and a nearby walking trail that takes you further down stream. Very New England!

Bridge connecting Bailey and Orrs islands.
It is fun driving over it, as it has a twist to it. Very unusual and looks to be very solidly build. There are beautiful water views on both sides of it.

The Tallest Bridge Observatory in the World (open to the public)! The Penobscot Narrows Bridge and Observatory is located in the heart of mid-coast Maine. The bridge spans the Penobscot River, linking the town of Prospect with Verona Island, just off Route 1 across from the town of Bucksport. Visitors can take the elevator 420 feet for breathtaking panoramic views of the nearby Maine coast and Fort Knox Historic Site.
We went to the top of the Observatory at the Penobscot Narrows Observatory after visiting Fort Knox and it was beautiful. From the top you can almost see forever. The elevator is very quick and they have good signs on the different things you can see in all directions. If you are afraid or uncomfortable in high places, this is not the thing for you to do. At the top of the Observatory, all 4 sides are glass.

We went to the Wiggly Bridge in York Harbor for the first time this fall. It was beautiful ! Great views all around and we walked one of the trails on the other side of the bridge. This is a place that couples or families can go to. We will return.

We were being routed to the nearest highway and came across this bridge by accident. There's a small parking lot so we stopped by to check this out. This is a true swinging bridge, we were the only two crossing over and felt the full swing. Coming back another party had now started their journey. I would consider this a hidden gem and thoroughly enjoyed our find.

Found it by accident, noticed the road sign reading, Covered Bridge Road, off of River Road, a nice little gem over the Presumpscott River. Private property on all sides of the bridge, so don't park on anyone's grass or driveway. There is a small space to pull over and take a few pictures.
