Scioto Mile is an urban green oasis in downtown Columbus that consists of over 175 acres of lush verdant parkland along the riverfront. It stretches from the lively Arena District to the beautiful lush Whittier Peninsula. The Scioto Mile links Columbus downtown to the Scioto River through a system of parks, bikeway,s and pedestrian trails.
The Scioto Greenway includes some of the city’s most popular attractions such as a 15,000 square-foot fountain, the largest outdoor climbing wall in the country, and the tranquil 120-acre Scioto Audubon park and bird sanctuary.
It is easy to see why the Scioto Mile is a favorite green space for everyone in Columbus. In addition to the Scioto Mile, the new Scioto Greenways project added 33 acres of new park areas and 1.5 miles of trails that connect to the Scioto Mile network.
