Central Ohio Parks


So many places to visit right in the heart of Ohio! The state capital, Columbus, is the hub of this busy part of Ohio. Fine dining, arts, a zoo and more parks than you can throw a stone at make this region stick out from the rest.

Diversity is the theme here. In the course of a short drive, travelers can explore science at COSI, sneak a peek at wild Africa in the zoo and gaze longingly up at the stars at Perkins Observatory.

And the stars are really not the limit! There's night life at the many restaurants. There's sports bars to watch the games, NHL Hockey, soccer and a waterpark. Who could ask for more in the heart of Ohio?
