Loux Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge located on Wismer Road crossing Cabin Run (creek) upstream from the Cabin Run Covered Bridge in Bedminster Township and Plumstead Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1874 by David Sutton out of hemlock in the Town Truss style. This is one of the shorter covered bridges in Bucks County at only 60 feet (18 m) long.[2][3]

The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 1, 1980.[1]
