When it comes to parks, Ohio is home to some pretty unique ones. (Be sure to check out this kayak park.) Tucked away in a shopping plaza in Gahanna, there’s a little-known waterfall park that features the perfect blend of adventure and modernity. It’s surrounded by natural beauty and boardwalk trails, but it’s just minutes away from patio dining and plenty of shopping.

Here’s why Creekside Park in Gahanna is worth its own day trip:

Nestled alongside Big Walnut Creek, this one-of-a-kind park and plaza is a true hidden gem for visitors and a beloved best kept secret by locals.
