“with a span of 50 feet”
Sewanee Natural Bridge in Franklin County, Tennessee, is a 25 feet (8 m) high natural sandstone arch with a span of 50 feet (15 m). It is essentially a giant sinkhole partially eroded to form a large stone bridge. A wet weather spring located behind the bridge in a rock cave probably contributed to the erosion forming the arch. It is called the Sewanee Natural Bridge as it was once owned by the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. It is a 3 acre (12,000 m²) designated state natural area.
A great place to go and get to move around a bit. Can walk across the bridge and climb a few formations or just putz around!
A mere 10 miles off the highway - was a nice stop. There was a very short foot path to the bridge. You could walk across it on top and beneath it too.
