Natural Bridge is a 51 foot tall stone arch that has been eroded out of the local rock. The bridge can be reached by a mile long trail from the Bridge Bay marina.

Hiking

A 1.5 mile trail leads to the Natural Bridge. It is popular as a short walk as it starts right next to Bridge Bay's marina and campsite and is the only way to get there without a ride. Most of the hike runs on an old paved road that was used until the early 1990s. After that, the route was closed to vehicles. This area is often visited by bears fishing for trout in spring, then the path is closed for about 1 month.
