    During my hike along the Yellow Trail in Sweetwater Creek State Park, I soon came across an impressive bridge that connects the access roads with the eastern hiking trails. This large steel and wooden bridge spans the fast-flowing Sweetwater Creek and provides a literal and figurative transition from civilization to the tranquility of the forest.

    From the center of the bridge, you have a magnificent view of the creek's whitewater shoals and the historic ruins of the New Manchester Mill on the other side. The contrast between the rust-colored steel of the bridge, the clear blue water, and the green of the surrounding forests is particularly photogenic.

    The bridge is not only a visual highlight but also a key junction in the trail network. It connects the Red Trail with the Yellow Trail, allowing for a varied loop through both sections of the park.

      A bridge made of wood and metal crosses over Sweetwater Creek. The bridge was built in 2012 after flooding destroyed the previous bridge.
