Hiking Ohio a Useful Guide,
By rebecca (athens, ohio USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hiking Ohio: A Guide To Ohio's Greatest Hiking Adventures (Paperback)
Hiking Ohio is a comprehensive guidebook that covers all regions, lengths, and types of hikes in Ohio. The photos are especially nice for a guidebook and the maps are excellent. Sidebars are really fun! This would be a good book for the avid hiker.

This book was very helpful as I was looking for a park to explore and conduct a personal retreat. It gave me several options while I was on the road and provided features of each location. I am happy that I purchased it.
