The Scioto Mile Promenade gives visitors a chance to enjoy views of the Columbus’ Scioto River. The paved promenade runs along the river banks starting from Battelle Riverfront Park and Bicentennial Park along Civic Center Drive.

Along the way, guests can relax on one of the shaded swings, sit on a park bench, or play a little chess. Scioto Mile Promenade also houses colorful, scented gardens. The park also contains a historic carved limestone balustrade first built as a floodwall in 1920, and today the city has fully restored the handrail. Bronze deer sculptures also pop up along the walkway.
