Zane Grey Museum & Roebling Bridge
Museum and historic bridge
About
The Zane Grey Museum, run by the National Park Service, has self-guided exhibits on the life and works of Zane Grey, one of the most influential writers of the American Western genre. It is in a historic home in Lackawaxen and also has the park bookstore.
Nearby is Roebling's Delaware Aqueduct, which once carried canal boats across the Delaware River and now works as a one-lane vehicle bridge. Pedestrian pathways let you walk across on either side, and waysides explain how it was built. The NPS says it remains the oldest wire cable suspension bridge in North America.
When to go
The museum is open Thursday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., from Memorial Day weekend to the last weekend of September. It also opens on Saturdays and Sundays in January and February for Eagle Watch weekends. The bridge is open 24 hours a day all year, though the walkways can close in snow or hazardous weather.
Good to know
The museum sits next to the Lackawaxen River Access, and the larger parking lot is across the street.
Passport stamps for the park are on the museum's front porch day and night.
