It was nice to walk around the river and take in some nature. There was some construction so I had to take a detour. I enjoyed both the north and south end ending up at Audobon Park.

Loved strolling this area. Chose the street level path which had nice benches, foliage, excellent views of the river and downtown. There was also a lower path that followed the river. The joggers...

Always so pretty and clean here no matter what type or time of day. The lighting is phenomenal and the colors of the buildings, grass, and trees always seem so vibrant! I bring out of towners here for a low key, free activity and it’s always a hit.

It’s such a beautiful trail to go for a jog or walk! I go on walks often and this is one of my favorite trails in Columbus. The lighting is also amazing (I love photography so I sometimes take pictures here). Perfect place to have picnics and relaxing walks!

Beautiful place for a weekend or weekday visit for everyone whether couple or family. Beautiful scooting river. You can rent an eBike and zip through or bring your own bike or skateboard. Rent a kayak or boat to zip through the river. Enjoy a dinner at milestone.

It's such a lovely area now with growing shade trees. We took our dog and teenagers for a picnic and it was so nice. It seems to be all open when you walk along the several levels of sidewalks, but when you settle in a grassy area, it feels like you have your own yard with neighbors walking by.

I run Scioto Mile every weekend. 10-15 miles per day. There's plenty of hills, curves and scenic routes for everyone. Scioto Mile has bridges and water for kayaking.. Some days are full, with cyclists, runners, walkers, scooters and much more, while other days seem to be more quiet and tranquil. Never a dull moment for me. There are enough hills to challenge every runner at any level :)
