Hocking Hills: Beyond Old Man'’s Cave

Most everyone who has heard of or had the opportunity to explore the hocking hills has heard of Old Man?s Cave. One of the largest and more popular state parks in Ohio, Old Man?s Cave is also one of the most familiar. Home to countless forms of wildlife, breathtaking waterfalls and miles of hiking trails, it is no wonder that this section of the Hocking Hills has retained so much popularity. However, Old Man?s Cave is just one of the six unique and different parks which make up the Hocking Hills. Some of the less explored and less well known areas offer plenty of pleasant surprises to all who decide to explore them.

The Ohio state park at Ash Cave is a spectacular combination of natural beauty and human convenience. The park at Ash Cave is one of the areas in the Hocking Hills which has been updated with asphalt paved trails in some areas and is largely wheelchair accessible. Perhaps the most noticeable feature of Ash Cave is the breathtaking, 100 ft. waterfall at the north end of the trail. Massive in every respect of the word, the waterfall has been seen completely frozen in the winter months -- one of the most beautiful times to visit the Hocking Hills.

Cedar falls is a more secluded section of the Hocking Hills, with its dense cover of Hemlocks and ferns. The long and slender park runs east to west along the stream formed from the beautiful Cedar Falls waterfall. The pool that forms at the base of the falls is the home to snapping turtles and many varieties of fish.

Conkle?s Hollow is one of the more challenging trails to hike in the Hocking Hills. This park has plenty of rugged, rocky cliffs which offer a nice contrast to the serenity of the gentle Hemlocks and soft flowing stream. The trail at Conkle?s Hollow state park in Ohio?s Hocking Hills can be traverse in about an hour and offers any level hiker a great adventure.

Nature lovers who are looking to find wildflowers and experience the full beauty of the Hocking Hills in the fall should check out Cantwell Cliffs. One of the more isolated of the state parks in the Hocking Hills, Cantwell Cliffs is the perfect place for a romantic walk with a loved one. The trails here offer a little challenge and large rewards with unique rock formations and inclines.

Rock House, or Robber?s Roost as it is popularly known, is the park in the Hocking Hills with a trail that proceeds directly through the recessed face of a massive boulder. History thrives at Rock House, from the rumored hideout of seventeenth century bandits to the massive rock formations which were left by glaciers thousands of years ago. This one is a favorite with younger adventure seekers.

The best way to enjoy the natural beauty of all of the parks within the Hocking Hills is to stay in an authentic log cabin. These Hocking Hills cabins are the perfect weekend getaway in Ohio, combining all of the perks and conveniences of a modern lifestyle with the raw and majestic beauty of Ohio's Hocking Hills.
