The Honey Run Covered Bridge is a wooden covered bridge spanning Butte Creek in Butte County, California, United States. Built in 1886 by the American Bridge and Building Company of San Francisco, the bridge was located on Honey Run Road at Centerville Road, midway between Chico and Paradise.
The bridge was a rare example of a three-span Pratt truss covered bridge and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 23, 1988. It was the last of its kind in the United States until it was destroyed in the Camp Fire on November 8, 2018.
Efforts to restore the bridge have been led by the Honey Run Covered Bridge Association (HRCBA), with plans for reconstruction beginning in 2022. The rebuilding of the bridge was completed in early 2025.
