"This landmark spanning Rainbow Canyon is one of the world’s highest single-span bridges....Before Bixby Bridge was constructed, travelers had to trek inland on what’s now called the Old Coast Rd, a rough dirt route that reconnects after 11 miles with Hwy 1 near Andrew Molera State Park. When the weather is dry enough, the old road is usually navigable by 4WD or a mountain bike." |
