You
might call this the land of covered bridges - you know, those old time
bridges with a roof and walls. According to the Visitors' Bureau, there
are 24 such bridges in the Bloomsburg area. The Columbia County website
lists and describes them: Covered
Bridges.

Bloomsburg
area attractions
- Most of the 'attractions' in and around Bloomsburg are 1 to 3-day

for the entire family, or the traveling Rod and Custom Americruise
featuring a entourage of hot-rods and other custom cars. We suggest you
contact the Visitors' Bureau to find out what might be happening when you
expect to be in the area. For contact information, see
