Located in southeastern Ohio, Strouds Run State Park consists of 2,606 acres of hardwood forest and the 161-acre Dow Lake. Six hiking trails can be found in the park; many offer excellent views of the lake and most are of moderate difficulty. There are also ten equestrian trails and 15 miles of mountain bike trails that meander through both the state park and an adjacent city park. All of these trails are open to hikers as well. Other activities possible in the park include hunting, fishing, swimming, and picnicking at one of the park's three picnic areas.
