Preservation Parks of Delaware County

The Preservation Park District of Delaware County is the natural areas park district of the county. Eight parks encompass nearly a thousand acres of preserved land, and provide passive recreation areas for such activities as hiking, picnicking and birding.

Within the park system, visitors can see rolling meadows, wetlands, virtually untouched wood lots, the remains of glaciers, ravine systems and waterways -- all right here in central Ohio!

Park naturalists lead programs for adults and children, including hikes where visitors learn about nature's wonders -- everything from owls to wildflowers to vernal pools. Programs for children get them close to nature with fun, hands-on activities.

Nature centers at Hogback Ridge Preserve and Deer Haven Preserve help educate the public on wildlife and habitats within the Park District.

Our special events draw people from all over. The "Osprey Homecoming" in April, and the "Perseid Meteor Shower Campout" and "Green-Wise Fair," both in August, are just a few of the events that showcase what the parks and Delaware County have to offer.

Preservation Parks gives central Ohioans an opportunity to enjoy the splendor and peace of our natural lands.
