If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

We just returned from a short trip to Ohio. We rode our bikes on the Towpath trail in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, hiked the Brandywine Falls and Ledges paths and finished up with a nice bike ride on the Holmes County Trail from Millersburg. One quick suggestion for the Towpath trail. We parked and rode our bikes from Rockside Station to Peninsula. Then we took the train back ($5 each). We did not realize that we rode UP HILL the entire way. If we do it again, we will start bike riding in Peninsula.

This is the location of the Wright brothers Wright Cycle Company building plus other related historical aviation sites.
This area includes the Visitor Center, the Parachute Museum, the retored Wright Brother's Cycle Shop, the Dayton Walk of Fame, and the location of the Wright Brother's Family Home. The Dunbar house is also part of it, nut is located less than a mile away. I checked all of it out. The Cycle Shop Tour is good, but the information is the same as what's in the short movie they show for the most part. It is interesting just to be in the actual building and interesting how they found that it even existed. The location of the Wright's house is a lot with a porch. The actual house had been moved to Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI many years ago by Henry Ford. The Walk of Fame is more of a City of Dayton thing, but interesting. I did not go into the Dunbar House, but did stop and look around. It's in great shape. The Parachute Museum is one room, but has some interesting exhibits. The Visitor Center itself has a Wright Flyer, a good movie about the the brothers, interesting exhibits, and a mock up of a period store, and their print shop is also upstairs. I spent a few hours here and enjoyed all of it. The Wright Cycle Shop is now checked off my Bucket List of places I wanted to see.

The main draw of Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is the Mound City Group, a collection of large reconstructed mounds commemorating the Hopewell tribe.
This National Park focuses on the many Native American burial mounds in the area and the miracle of their conservation . The movie about this place was very educational. We have been to other burial mound sites in this country and others. This park is well documented and worth a short visit. There is a hiking path through the trees between the visitor center and the river and the mounds themselves are close to the Visitor Center and easily accessible. No admission charge for this park.
