From Albany, take Highway 20 (Santiam Highway) east towards Lebanon.

Highway 20 is a well traveled 2 lane highway crossing the flat and fertile Willamette Valley farmlands.  In the distance can be seen the Cascade Mountain Range.  On a clear day one might spy the snow capped peaks of the Three Sisters some 70 miles to the southeast.

Travel approximately 5.5 miles and turn Left (north) on Highway 226.

Follow Highway 226 approximately  4.3 miles and turn Right (east) on Fish Hatchery Drive.

Follow Fish Hatchery Drive east, across the varied farmland, towards the Cascade Mountain Range for approximately 6.8 miles, until crossing Crabtree Creek on the Larwood Bridge.

This is the first covered bridge on the tour.  Turn Left (north) on Larwood Dr. and pull into the wayside, which offers picnic areas, and scenic views of the bridge, Crabtree Creek and Roaring River.
