Schlicher's Covered Bridge Autumn Aerial Facing North
An aerial photograph beautifully captures the historic Schlicher's Covered Bridge, which is situated in North Whitehall Township's Trexler Nature Preserve. The rich and vibrant fall colors decorate the surrounding landscape on this picturesque October afternoon in the Lehigh Valley. Game Preserve Road gracefully flows through the scene, winding its way into the colorful hills that characterize the preserve. This recently refurbished burr truss covered bridge spans 108 feet in length and was originally built in 1882. Recognized for its historical significance, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and underwent an extensive reconstruction in 2014 to enhance both its length and width.
