Amish Country Byway (Ohio)

Drive: In the rolling hills between Columbus and Cleveland
lies the Amish Country Byway, a network of country roads lined with
thick forests and scenic farms with bright red barns. The clip-clop
rhythm of horses and buggies on rolling hills takes you back to a time
when life was less complicated and less expensive, and stores closed on
Sundays.
Stop: Take a horse-drawn wagon ride, tour Amish barns and
houses, and feed the animals at the Farm at Walnut Creek. Many of Amish
Country's cheesemakers, including Heini's Cheese Chalet, welcome
visitors to watch the process and sample more than 50 fresh-made
varieties. Find out the why behind the simple ways at Behalt Amish &
Mennonite Heritage Center.
Stay: Keep it simple with a
stay at an Ohio State Park Lodge. In a river valley at the west end of
the Amish Country Byway, the Mohican State Park Lodge has newly
renovated guest rooms with private balconies. Packages here and at the
state's seven other lodges can be as low as $109 per night in October.
