Helpful Tips

  1. 1. Grocery shop before you get to The Hocking Hills region. This will help ensure our local retailers are able to keep up with their supply.

  2. 2. If you do need to go into any local businesses, including the grocery store, we ask that you are mindful of the current CDC guidelines and Governor DeWine's recommendations in regards to face coverings, social distancing, and hand washing.

  3. 3. If you or someone in your group is feeling ill or under the weather we would ask you to please adhere to the governor’s request and stay home & isolate. The Hocking Hills will be here for your adventures when you are feeling better!


While The Hocking Hills is a tourism destination we all love, it is also a very small community of wonderful local residents. Please help us keep everyone safe by adhering to the recommendations in regards to face coverings, social distancing, and hand washing. We are looking forward to having you experience all that The Hocking Hills has to offer in a safe and thoughtful manner!
