Falls of the Ohio State Park: Fossil Bed Discovery Hike

Bring your kids on a guided exploration of ancient marine life at Falls of the Ohio State Park. A naturalist will lead you through the fossil beds, where you'll examine real Devonian-era fossils and learn fascinating details about these prehistoric creatures—what they ate, how they lived, and the ways they became preserved in stone over millions of years. It's a hands-on way to connect with your area's natural history and geology. This program is completely free, made possible through the Fund for the Arts Cultural Pass. Just wear closed-toe shoes for comfortable walking on the park terrain. It's perfect for curious kids who enjoy nature and discovery, and families looking for an educational outing that doesn't require a ticket purchase.
