Cincinnati Travel Forum

Hi:

I would like to know if there are any good state parks or hill stations near Cincinnati. I would be staying for a week in Cincinnati and i can make only day trips. I need to return back to Cincinnati by late evening. I had visited all the museums in Cincinnati when i visited last time and i'm more keen on visiting scenic places this time. Any suggestions in this regard would be appreciated.

Thanks!

There are a couple of state parks (one in Ohio and one in Kentucky) not too far from the Cincinnati area. The first 2 websites will take you to their sites. The last site is for the Kentucky Horse Park. My wife and I and our oldest son went there many years ago and really enjoyed our day there. It is about 75 miles from Cincinnati, but an easy 1 1/4 hour drive from Cincinnati.
