Hiking at Rocky Fork State Park

Hikers can explore three hiking trails ranging in length from 0.3 to 1.1 miles. The trails, lined with delicate wildflowers, pass through open meadows and mature woodlands.

Bird Observation Trail: This Bird Observation Trail is 0.3 miles long, which leads right to a bird watching observation station!

Deer Loop Trail: Enjoy this 1.1-mile loop trail near Hillsboro, Ohio. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 22 min to complete. This trail is great for birding, hiking, and running, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash.

Storybook Trail:The Storybook Trail here features “Birds of a Feather” by Sita Singh. On the child-sized panels lining this new trail, families can read about the story of a peacock who learns to use his strengths to help his friends weather a storm.
