For thrill seeker and adventurous families, there are top-notch theme parks, aquariums, and zoos. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike, bike, paddle and camp amid thick forests and sandstone cliffs or on the shores of Lake Erie. Sports lovers have their choice of professional baseball, football, soccer, hockey and basketball. Ohio is a foodies delight, with notable chefs and hundreds of wineries and breweries to "taste".
