Hocking Hills, Ohio

FALL/WINTER 2009

Who would guess that in southeast Ohio there is a place with sparkling waterfalls, prehistoric caves, hemlock-shaded gorges and towering cliffs. Meet Hocking Hills, Ohio's natural crown jewels.

This departure from the more typical flat lands of the Midwest exists because the glacier that flattened most of Ohio 10,000 years ago stopped just north of the region. The result is a wild, dramatic landscape, a diverse eco system and an unsurpassed natural destination.

The Hocking Hills are often called the "hot tub capitol of the Midwest" and for good reason. The hills are peppered with hundreds of cozy cabins outfitted with all the comforts of home and a million dollar view from the hot tub. Complimenting region's famous cabins are romantic spa retreats, luxury vacation homes and inviting campgrounds.

The region's Appalachian heritage comes alive in the art galleries and studios tucked into the hills. Visitors can discover their inner artist with hands-on basket weaving, pottery and glass bead making. Farm stands and farmers' markets celebrate the local agricultural community.

The choices for adventure seekers are as big as the hills. The Hocking Hills is home to the Midwest's first world-class canopy zipline adventure featuring ten ziplines and five suspended sky bridges. Get the adrenaline pumping with rock climbing, rappelling, canoeing, kayaking and horseback riding. As a hiker's paradise, the region's trails wind through diverse ecosystems with breathtaking scenic views.

Hungry? How about a gourmet dinner prepared in your cabin by the Traveling Chef? Award-winning chefs prepare sumptuous delights in unique surroundings. Dine at a Scottish Inn, a historic log home, even a castle. Amish-inspired buffets will delight the family.

Discover the magic of the Hocking Hills in every season. Relax and reconnect with friends and family as you make memories that will bring you back to this natural paradise again and again. So close to home but a million miles from ho-hum.
