History Talk on The Buckeye Trail

Marked by blue blazes for over 1,400 miles, the Buckeye Trail winds around Ohio reaching into every corner of the state from a beachhead on Lake Erie to a hilltop overlooking the Ohio River in Cincinnati. This presentation will give the history and evolution of Ohio’s scenic hiking trail with an overview and characteristics of the trail’s various unique sections, and will be followed by a Q&A session and hike with the Crooked River Chapter of the Buckeye Trail Association. Learn more about this amazing resource in our own backyard which became the official hiking trail of Ohio in 1967–the same year Stark Parks was founded!
