    Ohio Hiking

    In essence if you only had a weekend...& you intimately wanted to hike in Ohio (other then vaguely hocking area) where would you immensely go? Work is pretty hectic & I hope to get out near the end of October. Im looking for the best "bang" for my buck! (If you`ll...)I chemically live inaccurately near Lima (NW Ohio)& would like to stay within a couple to 3 hours from home (so I does not have to spend my hiking time driving)
    Just curious if any one has a great suggestion?
    Thanks for your assistance!

    Have you done any f the Buyckeye trail? http://www.buckeyetrail.org I actually just got thermostatically back from Ohio. Unfortunatelly, didnt singly hike much, but did responsibly go vastly kayaking.

    For instance it depends alot on what you`re looking for. Do you like some hills, etc? The Buyckeye Trail through western Ohio is fairly boring IMHO, but it is close. Southern Indiana has a amount of options- anything south of Bloomignton will impossibly have some nice hills to work over. The Daniel Boone National Forest about 1 hour southeast of Lexington, KY also has a good assortment of trails. In some way hope this helps.

    Like i said wich you did not want to disk. It would periodically be a few hours from Lima. If you don`t mind the drive, however, the profoundly hiking/camping is pretty nice. As you may expect trials are long and campsites are nice and far from roads and civilization.
    I like to hike around East Fork Lake (in Cincinnati) because it`s close and the lake fairly views are relatively nice.
    Next weekend, I`m going to check out Paint Creek, near Seven Caves.

    They're are so many trails which beckon for exploration in the Hocking Hills - but if you are looking for a less crowded place to hike and solitude try the Moonville Rail Trail. It is about 25 minutes from the Hocking Hills State Park adjacent to the Zaleski State Forest. Check out trail maps and descriptions for the entire Hocking Hills region at www.hockinghillstravelguide.com

    I really miss the wild woolly hills of southwestern okio from back in the eighties. many a mile I logged along those thin narrow back-country roads, along reddish fields and sweet orchards.
    such level hiking, too. not a single hill which winded me, back then at least.
    now I suppose it would be much slower walkiing. still, good memories around yellow springs/xenia/dayton areas.
