The Regency Suspension Bridge, Texas, United States

Well worth the drive to be able to walk across this 1939 suspension bridge
Everyone who watches Texas Country Reporter (as we regularly do) will enjoy walking across the bridge used for the show's opening. We approved from the north of San Saba and had to drive a few miles on a caliche road in order to reach the bridge, but the road was not bad at all (we were expecting lots of loose gravel, but that was not the case). Because of structural issues, the bridge has been closed to traffic but it is open for walking (we were there in mid-December). If you are near Gatesville or San Saba, it is worth the drive to experience this 1939 suspension bridge, one of the last of its kind in Texas.

So glad we drove to find this, very peaceful country locations
Wow, I've never seen such a long wood suspension bridge. We drove over it as there is no sign saying not to, Hearing the tires on the wood was such an amazing sound. We enjoyed being the only ones out there and looking at the river that was mostly dried up. Very cool thing to look up and there was a sign describing it.

I love visiting the Regency Suspension Bridge and taking pictures of the bridge and the Colorado River. The bridge is well hidden and peaceful. A must see visit for tourists and driving over the one vehicle bridge.
