Finding Hemlock Falls – A hidden waterfall of Ohio

by

Unfortunately, vandals have damaged the property at Hemlock Falls. This has ruined it for all visitors! Ughhh. Per Jason from the Richland Co Park District- as of 5/20/20 – The Hemlock Falls property and the main falls are still open to the public via the Clear Fork Valley spur trail, but only via that trail spur and only to the end of the bridge below the falls. Due to current situations there is absolutely no off-trail access or access to other …

Enjoying history and scenery in Summit Metro Parks

by

As much as I love going on a hike, very few things can beat a FALL Ohio hike.  No 98% humidity, fewer bugs, and the crunch of leaves underfoot.  #Perfection.  On our first trip to Summit Metro Parks, we were given the most glorious autumn day, and the history and scenery that we encountered did not disappoint.  There are so many great hiking spots in Northeast Ohio, and Summit Metro Parks and this was definitely one not to miss.

Our young family had a fantastic time at this Hocking Hills cabin-like property, and I’ve been bursting to share!

Hiking at the Whipp’s Ledges within Hinckley Reservation

by

One of the things I love about following various Instagram accounts is getting new ideas for where to hike.  Hiking at Whipp’s Ledges within Hinckley Reservation was one of the places that caught my eye for our family.  I fell in love with this type of typography after last year’s trip to Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Whipp’s Ledges is part of the Cleveland Metroparks system in Northeast Ohio.  While we only hiked the Ledges Trail, there appear to be 7 foottrails within …

by

A member’s review + tips for if you go Back in December, my mom was asking me what kind of Christmas present she could get for my kids. ?Knowing we were relocating to Mansfield, Ohio right after Christmas, I thought that money towards a family membership to the Little?Buckeye Children’s Museum would be just the ticket (pun intended) to keeping the kids occupied on dreary Ohio days! We’ve been three times so far, and it’s safe to say that this …
