NORTHWESTERN OHIO TOURS
Not surprisingly, many of the attractions in beautiful Northwestern Ohio focus on water. Within this region is expansive Lake Erie, as well as several major rivers which flow into it, such as the Maumee and the Sandusky. The attractions in this area provide a broad range of experiences for
travelers, and reflect the many ways in which our forebears utilized water as an important natural resource. This region of small towns—and some not so small—provides a perfect slice of life view in some amazing and highly memorable settings.
