Fuse6 Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Beautiful old bridge. Costly to maintain these historical landmarks. Firstime l was in the Gaspe was summer 2015 when we did a family camping trip around the Gaspe. We would have drove right past the bridge but lf don’t recall seeing it. To bad the snowmobile trail didn’t go this far down the valley. The bridge and the Auberge Rivière Matapedia fishing lodge would make a great destination and over night stop. Hope you had a great Birthday Groomer. Another covered bridge we rode past in New Brunswick between Lac Baker and Edmunston. The covered bridge in Hartland NB is something to see. Forget the exact length but something like 1,200 feet long. Can be reach by the snowmobile trail. PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
