The river path in Scioto Mile Park leads into down Columbus. This is a great walking or biking path on a summer day.

Columbus is the capital and largest city of the U.S. state of Ohio. It is the 14th-largest city in the United States. Named for explorer Christopher Columbus, the city was founded in 1812 at the confluence of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers, and assumed the functions of state capital in 1816.
