For the sports¡¯ enthusiast, Ohio is home to quite a few professional teams. Head north to Cleveland and you¡¯ll find the Cleveland Indians or the Cleveland Browns. In Canton you can also visit the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Or if you¡¯re traveling to Cincinnati, see if you can catch a Bengals football game or a Cincinnati Reds baseball game. The Reds were the first professional baseball team, in 1869 and were originally known as the Cincinnati Red Stockings.
If music is more your style, Cleveland is also home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Check out some pieces from some of the greats in music!
Heading for the outdoors? Check out Serpent Mound State Memorial, a well-known site. At 1348-feet in length, this earthen mound winds in the shape of a serpent. It is located near Peebles, Ohio.

Getting in touch with nature is easy to do in Ohio. You can also visit John Bryan State Park, near Clifton and Yellow Springs, Ohio. Here you can camp, or hike the hills and the trails.

While you¡¯re in the neighborhood, visit the small towns of Clifton and Yellow Springs.

Grab breakfast or lunch at the old mill. Here you can dine out on the porch water-side while the grist mill still runs. Before you leave, take a stroll through the old general store for some old-time homemade goods.
If this is a little too close to nature, check out the Toledo Botanical Garden, home to a variety of individual gardens, or check out the Jet Express.
