Fantastic park for hiking, running, biking. I have run many miles along the tow path alongside the canal. In other areas of the park there are also some great spots for running, but it is more trail running - watch your ankles! Along the canal tow path the running is flat and easy. Aside from exercise, the historical buildings are impressive. This is a great weekend visit if you are within driving distance.
We love Ohio parks! The hike here is about an hour if fast paced and purposeful. (Prepping for long-term hike practice) If you love to just walk, breathe deeply and enjoy every ounce of nature...it can be upwards of 3 or more hours. The bathrooms at pavilions are clean. This is beautiful nature surrounded by a ton of city/suburban life so plenty to eat and do outside of this. The Appalachian outfitters store is on this road in.
Great park. Bike the towpath trail north or south. Buy a train ticket, if you want to bicycle one way. Train will stop at select stations along the trail and load your bike for the return.. surface is a combo of gravel, dirt, and road surface. Highly recommend a visit.
Had an amazing time during a few day getaway to the park. Tons of waterfalls & trails & more than enough things for sight seeing/picture opportunities nearby & throughout the park. Wish I had a few more days there. Would love you visit again.
This place is amazing. What is there not to like. Parking has always been an issue as people discover this place they need to create better parking and make a lot near the Blue Hen Falls. The best spot in the park has no parking and hiking 2 miles to get there will mean a lot of people simply will not be able to get there. So many great things to do in the park.. Love it.
