Between Columbus And Athens Is A Scenic Stop With Ohio's Largest Natural Rock Bridge, Camping, And Trails

Halfway between Columbus and Athens is Rockbridge, an outdoor enthusiast's paradise surrounded by state parks and nature preserves. The Ohio town takes its name from a large natural arch a few miles away. At a length of 100 feet, it's Ohio's largest natural rock bridge (and the only one about the same size as a blue whale). Besides this rock bridge, the town is also a gateway to places like the Rhododendron Cove State Nature Preserve, Clear Creek Metro Park, and Hocking Hills State Park, all within a 20-minute drive.
