It has never been easier to enjoy Bucks County’s cherished collection of covered bridges, thanks to a new mobile app that provides self-guided tours to all 12 wooden structures.
In conjunction with STQRY, an industry-leading mobile tour-guide provider, the Bucks County Covered Bridge Tour app uses GPS maps and audio storytelling to guide tourists on a curated drive through the most beautiful locations in Bucks County.
The app is free on Apple’s App Store and Google Play, thanks to support from the Bucks County Covered Bridge Society and the Bucks County Tourism Grant Program. After downloading the app, people can choose from curated tours, or use an interactive map to find the covered bridge closest to their current location.
Three driving tours, starting in Newtown Township, New Britain Township, and Tinicum Township, cover all 12 covered bridges on a 90-mile route, with the Mean’s Ford Pony Truss bridge in Ralph Stover Park as a bonus stop. The estimated driving time in five hours.
Three shorter tours, starting in Perkasie Borough, Newtown Township, and Tinicum Township, include seven or eight covered bridges, with an estimated driving time between three and four hours.
To get the app, just search for “Bucks County Covered Bridges” in the Apple App Store and Google Play Console.
