For April 28 - Once the morning chill wears off it should be a good day for butterflies!

YES! We are now open for the 2025 season! You can now purchase your admission tickets in the gift shop when you arrive or through our online store. Click on the Merchandise tab above and then look for General Admission Tickets. Online tickets must be purchased at least 24 hours in advance.

We are open everyday but Tuesday from 10-5, with last admission onto the trail at 4PM. We are dog-friendly to friendly dogs! Admission $6. Our trail is about a mile long with lots of benches and picnic tables. Remember, this is the Hocking Hills; no such thing as flat land!

As a reminder, we are dog friendly to friendly dogs. Make sure they stay on their leash.

Some recent butterflies.
