Stay Active
Want a break from eating and drinking? Take a stroll along the riverside. Smale Riverfront Park is a great place to take a load off, take scenic pics, and enjoy the sights and sounds of the Ohio River. This is a great place for a run or jog. Even just running across the bridges is a great workout with beautiful city and river views. It’s also very difficult to get lost running back and forth on the bridges.
