Experience Fall Fun and Festivities at Zion Retreat & RV Park
As the summer heat gives way to cooler temperatures and the leaves begin to change, there’s no better time to visit Zion Retreat & RV Park in Flushing, Ohio. Fall is the perfect time to plan your stay and enjoy hiking, biking, seasonal events, and more in a cozy autumnal atmosphere.
Zion is a hidden gem in Belmont County with over 1,300 picturesque rolling hills and a glimmering lake stocked with fish for visitors to reel in. Spend the day enjoying the great outdoors at this off-the-beaten-path retreat that offers several ways to enjoy any season.
Fall is the ideal season for hiking at Zion, where the park’s trails offer stunning views of the autumn foliage. The crisp air and rich colors make every step more enjoyable, whether you’re embarking on a short stroll around the park’s lake or embracing your more adventurous side with their nearly 5-mile-long mountain biking trail. Don’t have a mountain bike? Zion offers rentals for both bikes and helmets for guests.
If mountain biking isn’t your thing, stretch your legs along the nature trail. The nature trail is just under 2 miles long and encapsulates the 27-acre lake.
After a day of hiking or biking, fall evenings at Zion Retreat are truly special. Relax as you take in the breathtaking sights of the sunset, and afterward, there’s nothing better than cozying up around a campfire as the temperatures plummet. Roast marshmallows, share stories, or simply enjoy the quiet of the countryside.
Stargazers delight; the crisp, clear nights of fall in the countryside are also ideal for viewing the night sky. With less light pollution and lower humidity, the stars seem to shine brighter, offering a breathtaking view of the moon and stars.
Zion also has events planned for this fall that are sure to bring seasonal vibes. The most popular is the Apple Cider Festival, which allows attendees to ride on a wagon to the apple orchard and gather delightfully crisp apples to make homemade apple cider. The festival is a free, family-friendly, and delicious event to delight the tastebuds!
October is an eventful time for the park’s RV Guests. On October 19th at noon, guests staying in the park can put their cooking skills to the test and enter a chili cook-off to win a prize! Later on the 19th, guests are invited to partake in some spooky fun with trick-or-treating and pumpkin painting. Kids and adults are invited to dress up in their silliest, scariest, and prettiest costumes while they enjoy the day.
Whether you’re into outdoor adventures, a night around a cozy campfire, or festive fall fun, Zion offers the perfect autumn getaway. Enjoy breathtaking natural beauty and discover the magic of autumn at Zion Retreat & RV Park. For more information, visit their website.
