Best places: Nature preserves in Cincinnati, United States

👍 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!

335 acres of prairie, forest & wetland habitat with walking trails, a kids’ garden & a gift shop.

This 113-acre forested preserve features a nature center, hiking trails & diverse wildlife.

👍👍 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...

👍👍 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...

👍 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...

👍 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...

👍👍 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...

👍👍 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...

👍👍 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.

👍👍 A hidden gem in the community. Absolutely beautiful trails and good spot on the river to fish.

👍👍 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...

🫤 Nice trails but the homeless gang camped out in a tent worried me.
