The 1882 Schlicher's Covered Bridge, also known as the Game Preserve Road Bridge, is one of several covered bridges that weave around Jordan Creek giving the locals access to neighboring communities.

Located in Schnecksville, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, (North Whitehall Township), Schlicher's Bridge was built in 1882 and was in operation for 128 years before it was closed in 2010 after it was found to be sagging. It remained unused until 2014 when it was reconstructed at a cost of $1.8 million dollars. The new bridge is longer, wider, and stronger than the original single-span wood-truss bridge, but remains covered. Like all covered bridges in Pennsylvania, Schlicher's Covered Bridge is on the National Register of Historic Places. This one is located at the scenic Trexler Nature Preserve and Lehigh Valley Zoo.
