This Gold Rush Era Bridge Still Stands—And the Hike Beyond It Is Stunning

Join us for a beautiful hike in South Yuba River State Park in California’s historic Gold Country. We start our adventure at the Bridgeport Covered Bridge, one of only a handful of covered bridges still standing in California. Originally built in 1862, this historic bridge once served miners and travelers crossing the Yuba River during the Gold Rush—complete with toll prices posted for wagons, horses, and supplies. From there we head out on the Point Defiance Loop Trail, hiking along the dramatic canyon where the South Yuba River meets the Yuba River. Along the way you’ll see: • The historic Bridgeport Covered Bridge • Stunning views of the Yuba River canyon • Narrow cliffside trails and switchbacks • Quiet spring river views • A beautiful hilltop oak forest • A fun rock formation we named “Whale Rock” We also share one of our favorite whole-food plant-based hiking snacks that travels well whether you’re hiking, biking, road-tripping, or flying. This day of hiking and a great reminder that staying healthy can be simple and fun when you get outside and move your body.
