Amish Country of Ohio

Southern Ohio Amish Country

In Adams County, Ohio and tucked into the gentle rolls of Appalachian foothills, this southern section of Ohio has been aptly nicknamed "Little Amish Country" by both locals and tourists alike. Although not as large as its northern counterpart, it isn't likely you'll miss seeing a carriage or two if you take a drive along these quiet roads deep in the heart of farm country and settled along the Ohio River. And you will definitely see the many signs for the many Amish-owned stores like Millers Furniture, Bulk Foods and Bakery and Keim Family Market. But don't think for a minute that these are just road-side markets along some lonely stretch of highway. Miller's, alone, is a huge complex of handmade furniture (both indoor and outdoor), bulk food sales and a bakery.

But shopping aside, if you like immersing yourself in the outdoors, southern Ohio is the place to visit. There are tons of hiking trails between the Edge of Appalachia Preserve, Shawnee State Forest and Adams Lake State Park. There is fishing and boating along the Ohio River and quiet walks at nearby nature preserves.
