Charleston Falls Preserve Parking

Overflow parking improvements began on Thursday, May 15, but it's not yet ready for use. As a result, parking will be limited this weekend.

It might be the perfect time to discover a new favorite! With 15 other parks to explore, there's plenty of space and nature waiting for you. Thank you for your patience as we work to improve your park experience!

Spring Wildflowers

Now showing in your parks...

 

Ohio is experiencing a vibrant spring wildflower display, with blooms like Spring Beauty, Bloodroot and Trout Lily appearing in mid-April, while others like Jack-in-the-pulpit and wild geranium will bloom in early May. To get a head start on planning wildflower viewing, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) provides a bloom report with locations and bloom times.
