Day One

Morning: Visit Morgan's Canoe & Nature Center for an educational float trip down the Little Miami Scenic River. Experience the "soft" adventure of this professionally guided tour on non-capsizable rafts as you learn about the river's ecology and cultural history.

Afternoon: Continue the experience with a visit to Fort Ancient Earthworks & Nature Preserve, a National Historic Landmark with the nation's finest example of a Hopewell Indian prehistoric hilltop enclosure. More than three miles of earthen walls surround this 100-acre enclosure on a high bluff overlooking the Little Miami Scenic River. Discover the lifestyles of these cultures through guided tours of the museum with 9,000 square feet of exhibit space that covers the Ice Age to the present day.

Evening: For dinner, visit Wildflower Café in Mason. The menu incorporates fresh and pure seasonal ingredients, purchased from local & organic farms, prepared in a creative and unique style.
