Come spend some time at the beautiful Fountain Square, a park with a rich Cincinnati heritage. Since 1871, this fountain square has played a key role in the center of the city’s civic, social and commercial life. Discover the gorgeous Tyler Davidson Fountain in the middle, surrounded by trees, a pavilion and music stage, a tranquil water wall and a seasonal ice rink.
Beer lovers unite! Bockfest, the oldest bock beer festival in the country, celebrates not only Cincinnati’s brewing heritage but also the beginning of spring. Events kick off with a parade, led by the reigning Sausage Queen and a goat pulling a bock beer keg. Afterward, the weekend is filled with live entertainment, great food, walking tours, brewing demonstrations and lots and lots of beer.
Down by the Lunken Airport Playfield is the Lunken Playfield Loop, a 5-mile paved recreation trail that can be found behind the airport. Get some fresh air in the city and enjoy the wide-open views, and the spectacular sight of airplanes taking off and landing nearby, as you hike, jog, bike or skate in this large loop.
