20211204 – Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park

Date: 12/04/2021 – Distance: 1.2 mi – Elapsed Time: 0.75 hr – Ascent: 141 ft – Descent: 98 ft – Difficulty: Medium

This is my second hike of the Columbus and Franklin Park Metro Parks Winter Hike Challenge. I have to do 6 assigned parks each month for 3 months, and a total of 18 to complete the challenge.

Batelle Darby Creek Metro Park is west of Columbus and follows a 13 mile stretch of Big and Little Darby Creeks and covers over 1600 acres. I’ve been to this large park many times and today I opted for a short hike in the Cedar Ridge Area. This area is hilly, and the views are intense.
