🍂☀️ Step Back in Time at the Historic Jay Covered Bridge 🍁
Tucked along the East Branch of the Au Sable River in Jay, the historic Jay Covered Bridge is one of the Adirondacks’ true treasures. ❤️
Built in 1857, this beautiful wooden Howe truss covered bridge spans 175 feet across the river. Completely restored in 2007, it remains the sole surviving bridge of its kind in the Adirondacks.
Today, the bridge is part of Douglas Memorial Park, where you’ll find picnic tables, a covered pavilion, benches, and plenty of peaceful spots to take in the incredible river views.
☀️ There’s still time to make the most of summer! Take a refreshing swim in the Au Sable, enjoy a picnic by the river, explore the historic bridge, or simply find a quiet spot to soak it all in.
And as summer begins to fade, 🍁 the Adirondack landscape starts its spectacular transformation. The surrounding trees will soon be glowing with fall color, making this already beautiful spot even more magical.
One beautiful place. Two incredible seasons. Plenty of reasons to visit Jay.
📍 47 Covered Bridge Ln., Jay, NY
🍂 Make the most of the last days of summer—and get ready for the beauty of fall in the Adirondacks!
