Getting Outdoors

When it comes to outdoor activities, Cincinnati has you covered with a variety of parks in and around the city. The International Friendship Park is a narrow green space by the Ohio River. The park is quiet and low-key, making it perfect for an early morning jog with your dog or just a solo contemplative walk.

If the park seems too small to enjoy some biking, you’ll be glad to know that the park is adjacent to the Ohio River Trail. The Ohio River Trail is a 4.6 mile long, moderately trafficked multi-use trail that is open year-round. The out-and-back trail runs right alongside the river and links several urban riverfront parks.

When camping in an RV rental near William Howard Taft National Historic Site, the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is ideal for some family time if the kids tagged along.

At the museum, you’ll see about 500 animals and more than 3000 species of plants.
