| One of the most popular scenic drives throughout the Commonwealth is the Covered Bridge Tour in Lehigh and Northampton Counties. This tour features seven bridges in the two counties as well as other unique crossings and viaducts. Five of the six covered bridges built in Lehigh County during the 1800's cross Jordan Creek, a tributary of the Lehigh River. Although seven more covered bridges have been built in Lehigh County since 1972, the county prides itself on the six Burr Truss bridges from an era long forgotten. |
