In August, I was pleasantly surprised to find the Indian Run Falls Park with it's steep cliffs and beautiful nature trails. It is just north of Dublin-Granville Rd, between the post office (west) and the library (east). Here are a few photos and a brief video.

I posted on the Parks FanClub page that Donegal was my fav, which it is, but I also wanted to say that Coffman is great too! It has a greater variety of tree species than any other... plus I work in it at City Hall.

Hayden Falls is a favorite and can be found on the West side of the Scioto River on Hayden Run Road.

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
