The Little Miami River is designated as a state and national scenic river, and a portion of it runs right through John Bryan State Park. Clifton Gorge is also found in the park and is recognized as a national natural landmark, so sightseeing should be high on your list of things to do once you've set up camp at John Bryan State Park. For the best views, slip into your hiking boots and tackle the Gorge Trail. There are ten other hiking trails you can also explore during your stay in the park — check out the half-mile Quarry Loop Trail if you just want a short walk, or the North Rim Trail for something a little more challenging. The Arboretum Trail is also open to bicycles if you prefer getting around on two wheels, and there's a total of ten miles of trails open to mountain biking. For most campers, however, the main highlight of a vacation in John Bryan State Park involves getting out on the Little Miami River. Famed as an excellent canoeing destination, the river's twisting course sees it wind past steep cliffs and towering trees, promising beautiful scenery and family fun in equal measure. There's a canoe launch area not far from the park on Jacoby Road, so make sure you pack your swimwear. If you're keen to do some stream fishing, you'll also feel right at home here. Panfish, smallmouth bass, and rock bass can all be caught here, and there are several excellent spots within the park where you can wet a line. However, you'll need to make sure you have a valid Ohio fishing license before you get started. Finally, if you're looking to get a little exercise and have some fun with the whole family, John Bryan State Park also has its own 18-hole disc golf course. It's easy to play and kids love it, so you might find yourself playing the course more than once.
