Hiking at the Highlands Nature Sanctuary
With all the buzz surrounding Hocking Hills in recent years, you might wonder: is there another place in Ohio that matches its beauty? Enter the Highlands Nature Sanctuary and Preserve, nestled near Bainbridge, Ohio. On a beautiful Saturday in August, we set out to explore its wonders.
Join us as we trek through kilometers of serene hiking paths winding through lush gorges adorned with ferns and pawpaw trees. Marvel at the stunning karst landscape, featuring impressive slump blocks and mysterious caves. Despite being a hidden gem, the trails are refreshingly quiet, making this an ideal spot for anyone seeking a blend of adventure and education.
the Highlands Nature Sanctuary offers an unforgettable experience. Could this place be better than Hocking Hills? Watch and decide for yourself!
Address: 7660 Cave Road, Bainbridge, OH 45612

Lake Vesuvius kayaking and overnight car camping
Переглядів 5416 годин тому
We return to Lake Vesuvius on a Friday evening in July after work, but this time with a different approach. We went car camping because we had forgotten some of our sleeping materials, which has become a recurring theme here lately. Enjoy a hot shower at Iron Ridge campground and spend the day kayaking on the lake. The day concluded with a visit to the Sixth Sense Brewing Company in Jackson, Ohio.
