Ramp Creek Covered Bridge

A Visit to Brown County State Park

Ramp Creek is Indiana’s oldest covered bridge built in 1838 by Henry Wolf. It’s the only Double Tunnel Bridge in Indiana and one of four in the United States. The DNR moved it from Putnam County in 1932 from its location on Ramp Creek. It now crosses Salt Creek at Brown County State Park. It is a single span burr arch truss design. The bridge is 110 feet long, including 7 foot overhangs. The portal width of both lanes is eleven feet wide and twelve feet high.
The bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places
The bridge is on the North Gate Entrance and all vehicles must go through it. Tall vehicles or cars with bikes on top may not make it through. If your vehicle will not clear, you will have to use the West Gate Entrance located west of Nashville on Highway 46.
