👍 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!

Shrader-Weaver Woods
Nature preserve
👍👍 Walked the woods trail through a springtime old growth forest. Undergrowth was popping with flowers and greenery. In just a few weeks the towering tree canopy will shade most of the forest floor. Beautiful large trees in their natural state in this never cut section of forest.

Miller Nature Sanctuary

👍👍 What a delightful set of trails! You have three to choose from, I actually recommend all three and in total we ended up at about 2.8 miles round trip to the main parking area by the road. Rocky Fork Creek runs by much of it, you are in the canopy with tons of wildlife, if you look closely in the pi...

Aullwood Audubon

👍👍 We loved, loved, loved this park! We stopped by to see 'The Troll That Hatched an Egg' exhibit. It's VERY affordable, but if you have a membership to the Cincinnati Nature Center, it's free! We went on a weekend after we had a ton of rain, so it was to be expected, but the trails were SUPER muddy. L...

👍👍 This is a nice place to visit to be out in nature. You can easily get to Cedar Bog off of the Simon Kenton bike trail 5 miles outside of Urbana if you choose to get there that way. There are public restrooms right inside the welcome center and be sure to check out all the information and exhibits th...

Morris Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 Beautiful reserve! There is a decent size hill that has a trail that goes to its highest point and trails that go around the bottom of the hill. Also trails that go through the prairie grass and beside The Little Miami River that is very scenic. Parking is more than adequate. There is a portable res...

👍👍 Beautiful natural area, accessible trails, diverse habitats, great for casual or more serious walking. Most trails are easy, and a couple a little more strenuous. Birding is outstanding. Dog friendly. Toilets available in main building at north entrance, and behind the pavilion at the south entrance...

The Narrows Reserve Nature Center
Nature preserve
👍 The Narrows is a nice spot with a beautiful path along the water. There’s a few options as far as trails. It hasn’t changed much over the past decade as I relied on my past experience here to navigate the River loop. My only suggestion is the trails aren’t marked well/often. I helped a few people o...
