Red Bridge Recreation Area

The Red Bridge, originally known as Wertz's Bridge, at 202 feet (floor), and 218 feet, 7 inches (portal to portal) is the longest single span covered bridge in Pennsylvania. Built in 1867 and one of five remaining in Berks County, the covered bridge allows pedestrians to pass over the Tulpehocken Creek to the Union Canal Bicycle and Walking Trail and the Berks County Heritage Center. The Red Bridge Recreation Area, located just south of Wertz's Bridge on Tulpehocken Road, consists of a picnic pavilion and badminton court.
