Glencoe Road Bridge Over Gunpowder Falls

Highlight • Bridge

If you're cycling in the area or on the Torrey C. Brown Trail, you'll likely pass by this spot where there's a metal deck bridge over the Gunpowder Falls. Although it's not possible to stop in the middle to enjoy the views over the river as cars are passing and it's a single-lane bridge, on one side, there's a small area with grass where you can take a short break.
