Cantwell Cliffs
If you are looking for a rugged trail off the beaten path, we recommend exploring Cantwell Cliffs.

Old Man’s Cave Loop
One of the most popular fall hikes, the Old Man’s Cave Loop, takes you along rock formations, cliff overlooks, and cascading waterfalls. Hike from Old Man’s Cave to Cedar Falls on your own or join the annual Grandma Gatewood’s Fall Colors Hikes and explore the trail with a local naturalist!
Peninsula Trail at Lake Hope State Park
We recommend exploring the Peninsula Trail at Lake Hope State Park if you are looking for a scenic lakeside hike. This 2.8-mile loop takes you along a flat tree-lined trail around the lake, offering spectacular views of the lake backdropped by vibrant foliage.
Hocking State Forest Fire Tower
If you are looking for views without the strain of our more challenging trails, head to the Ash Cave Fire Tower. Park at the lot along Chapel Ridge and take a short stroll through the woods to access the fire tower. Climb to the top and be rewarded with stunning panoramic views of Hocking Hills.
