Metroparks in Toledo is a group of parks and green, wide open spaces all linked by the same group of recreation trails. They are ideal for walking, running and cycling. The group of cycling trails is the host spot for the Metroparks Bicycle Tour that includes a choice of a 10, 31 or 100 mile loop.
The Maumee River, a short twelve-mile drive away from Toledo, is the perfect place to make a splash on your aquatic recreation adventure. Enjoy water sports like kayaking, whitewater rafting as well as fishing and even swimming in the warmer months of the year.
Imagination is something you never outgrow, and nowhere is that more obvious than at Toledo's Imagination Station. Formerly COSI, this amazing venue touts the wonders of science in a fun and highly interactive way. The kids will love the many experiments, exhibits and attractions that will draw them into and make them part of various scientific principles, but they will also enjoy some of the special features here like Mindbender Mansion and various summer camp programs. There are also special tour packages available to groups and area schools.
