The Christine Falls Bridge is a reinforced concrete bridge faced with native granite. The fifty-six foot long and thirty foot wide bridge was built in 1927 and 1928 and is a wonderful example of rustic park style architecture.
The bridge can be found on the road between Longmire and Paradise. It crosses Van Trump Creek and from the bridge you can view the upper falls. A short trail down to a lower view point allows you to see the lower falls framed by the bridge. There is parking near the bridge, so please do not stop on the bridge to look at the waterfall.
