Cruise Hocking Hills, Ohio May 29-31

Out and About in Ohio

Tinkers Creek along the Ohio and Erie Canalway

Our three newest drives traverse the Midwestern state of Ohio, offering a kaleidoscope of history, culture and stunning natural beauty.

Invigorate your senses exploring the rugged Hocking Hills Scenic Byway, with dramatic rock formations, lush forest, waterfalls, and fun to drive curvy roads.

The Ohio River Scenic Byway explores Southern Ohio past and present, through the extraordinary murals of Steuben and Portsmouth, museums, Native American earthworks and stations important to the Underground Railroad.

The Ohio and Lake Erie Canalway was a vital link to the growth of Ohio and the nation in the mid 1800s. Today, this National Heritage Area seamlessly blends the big city attractions of Cleveland with charming communities and Amish Country. Get your recreation on at Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and walk or bike along the 100-mile Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath.
