Cranberry Bog. 100 yards off the north shore of Buckeye Lake, just west of Cranberry Point, you can only access the bog with a permit due to the fragile nature of the bog mat. The island at the middle is accessible only by boat, though a boardwalk is present as. And there’s an open house in June at the time of the orchids’ blooming. You don’t want to miss that.

Blackhand Gorge. A geologically spectacular narrow gorge cut by the Licking River. There is also a lovely display of spring wildflowers in the area. Buckeyelakestatepark.com
