About this spot

Labatos Bridge

The Labatos Bridge is a historic truss bridge located in the Alamosa-Trinchera watershed of Colorado. It was originally constructed in 1919 and served as the primary crossing over the Trinchera Creek until 2002, when it was replaced with a newer bridge. The Labatos Bridge is significant for its use of a Pratt through-truss design, which was a common type of bridge design in the early 20th century. Today, the bridge is preserved as a historic landmark and is a popular destination for tourists and photographers.

Tourists visiting the Labatos Bridge can enjoy a unique glimpse into Colorado's transportation history. The bridge itself is a testament to the ingenuity and engineering capabilities of the early 20th century, and visitors can learn about the evolution of bridge design and construction in Colorado. In addition, the bridge is located in a scenic area with stunning views of the surrounding landscape, making it a great spot for photography and outdoor recreation. Overall, the Labatos Bridge is a must-see destination for anyone interested in Colorado's history and natural beauty.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
