Little Gap Covered Bridge is a covered bridge in Carbon County, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania has 231 covered bridges on record at Wayfarrow.

It crosses Aquashicola Creek; it is about 92 feet long (32nd longest of 83 measured in Pennsylvania).

Status check, 2026-11: A single-span Burr truss bridge from about 1860, still open to traffic and rebuilt in 1986. The county plaque says only 'between 1840 and 1860', so the build year is uncertain. One source gives the length as 78.1 ft. Little Gap Covered Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands at 40.8311° N, 75.5228° W.
