This bridge is located along the Falling Run Nature Trail at Maurice K. Goddard State Park in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. The trailhead is located along Park Road in the northwestern part of the park. The trail is a 0.7 mile loop, with yellow blazes for hikers to follow. The trail crosses Falling Run twice on the loop, with bridges at each crossing. The bridges are constructed of wood. According to the Maurice K. Goddard State Park Recreational Guide, " This self-guided nature trail follows old logging roads as it winds its way to the hemlock forested Falling Run Ravine. Falling Run drops 90 feet in elevation in less than 1,000 feet, cascading over a small waterfall. Hikers can find signs of a pioneer settlement of the George Y. Stright family, including the spring house and mill pond near the trailhead. Signs of the log cabin, old gristmill, and sawmill have all but vanished."
