Hocking Hills | Anna Meyer





This article features interesting places that students should check out around the Columbus area. Most of these places are on campus or in Columbus; however, there is another location that just had to be added in! Hocking Hills is a beautiful area in southern Ohio which features a multitude of outdoor adventures! What’s best about Hocking Hills (if you have a car) is that it is only about an hour away from Columbus!
On a recent visit to Hocking Hills, I was amazed that such a beautiful place with hills and waterfalls could exist in Ohio. Visitors to the area can engage in a wide array of activities ranging from canoeing, to hiking, to horseback riding, to shopping! Another favorite activity in Hocking Hills is zip lining! Hiking the trails in the state park, you can see a variety of wildlife as well as the foothills of mountains and waterfalls. The area is surrounded by farmers’ markets, antique stores, and home style cooking restaurants. 
If you have transportation, I strongly recommend traveling to Hocking Hills this spring! It can be done at a relatively cheap price (all of the state park hiking trails are free) and it is an awesome experience! For more information visit: http://www.hockinghills.com/
