Cincinnati Nature Center
Nature preserve
👍 I don't make it to CNC very often any more due to physical limitations but this place is amazing and I'm hoping it is still well hiked!! Red wing trail!! Not 5 stars because the aforementioned trail is ALWAYS muddy! Bring old shoes and you'll have a blast!

👍👍 This park is wonderful for a nice quiet walk in nature, I walked the trail for over an hour and it was beautiful. There's also a museum, playground, and historic sites !!

Buttercup Valley Preserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 A lovely nature preserve surrounded by urban sprawl. It is moderately peaceful. The walking trails have several neat wooden bridges over small streams. Large, old trees of many varieties provide a shady canopy on hot sunny days. My family visited in October just as the leaves were beginning to chang...

Trillium Trails Wildflower Preserve
Nature preserve
👍 Excellent park. Great trails, well maintained. It’s always quiet and peaceful there and well worth the trip. Don’t get fooled though by the wildflowers part advertised on the map, it’s just a meadow, or simply a field. (In the fall, mostly goldenrod). Still pretty though and lots of photo ops. For t...

Halls Creek Woods State Nature Preserve image

Halls Creek Woods State Nature Preserve
Nature preserve
👍 It's a nature preserve, so no animals or bicycles allowed. Rated easy, but the initial steep switchback is NOT easy and does need substantial maintenance due to erosion. Likely was last addressed in 2018. There are not any benches or paved parts, just felled trees to sit on. Once you're up the hill,...

Kelley Nature Preserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Beautiful park with a nice walk along the shore of the Little Miami River. Couple of places to stop and sit on a park bench and just watch the river go by, perhaps even an occasional canoer. The trails are short but there is one section that heads back up towards the entrance that has a moderate hil...

Caldwell Nature Center
Nature preserve
👍 The leaves are squeezing orange, lemon and lime colors! One of my fave places for Autumn this year. It’s sort of a wet day and the steps are a bit slippery but my 4 year old niece puddles through it. She’s thrill of the “rain shower” leaves pouring over her. It’s magical to watch her in awe of natur...

Avon Woods Nature Center
Nature preserve
👍👍 No one else on the trail this evening. Massive trees in this little park so close to the city. A little vegetation encroachment on some parts of the trail but very clearly marked. Kind of feels like the forest primeval.

Oxbow Nature Conservancy
Nature preserve
👍👍 One of the very few natural lakes around. Fantastic bird watching and exciting fishing. Big crappie, big gar, big channel cats, and big carp (that I know of personally) all in the lakes. The Big O fills it every year so lord knows what monsters lurk in there. Easy driving paths that, as long as its...

👍👍 First, Grand Valley is gated and you have to have Indian Hill water service to get access. If you have IH water count your blessings! This place is beautiful! You can walk the trails, fish, canoe and kayak. Don't have a personal water craft? No worries. They have plenty that you can borrow. Also cle...

Boone County Cliffs State Nature Preserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 It would be exciting to see it included in the middle creek trail loop. And not closed to the public. There is a group of residents that no longer want vehicular traffic on their road. Which is understandable. I hope they can come to an agreement and allow the general public to still enjoy this park...
