Highbanks Metro Park

Highbanks Metro Park, a grand 1,200-acre outdoor haven, offers visitors breathtaking views from a 100-foot-high shale bluff overlooking the Olentangy State Scenic River. The park’s landscape is sculpted by tributary streams, creating deep ravines that reveal the beauty of Ohio and Olentangy shales, enriched with large concretions. Ideal for nature enthusiasts, Highbanks promises a blend of scenic vistas and geological wonders.
