Mohican State Park

Mohican State Park is a nature reserve in Ohio featuring forests and a river gorge carved by the Clear Fork Branch of the Mohican River. The landscape includes a mix of wooded terrain and open areas that visitors explore on foot or by bike.

The park was established in 1949 as Clear Fork State Park and received its current name in 1966. This change reflected growing awareness about protecting natural areas in the region.

The park maintains a naturalist program during summer months, organizing nature walks, family activities, and educational programs at the amphitheater.

The park offers trails suitable for different fitness levels, ranging from easy walks to more challenging hikes. Visitors should wear proper footwear and bring water to stay comfortable while exploring the outdoors.

The park attracts mountain bikers with dedicated trails through both the reserve and surrounding forest areas. An annual bike racing event draws riders of various skill levels who come to test themselves on these routes.
