Rinard Covered Bridge is a covered bridge in Washington County, Ohio. Ohio has 147 covered bridges on record at Wayfarrow, 10 of them in Washington County.

It crosses Little Muskingum River; it is about 130 feet long (9th longest of 40 measured in Ohio).

Status check, 2026-11: The 1876 Smith-truss bridge was destroyed by a flash flood on Sept 18, 2004 and rebuilt in 2006 using original trusses and timbers where possible, so it is unclear whether to call the current structure 1876 or 2006.
