Little Miami River

Ohio Home | Ohio Sitemap
As you travel south, toward the Ohio River, the Little Miami River goes through several disparate phases. At its inception, Miami is a narrow, overall-calm streamlet. Momentum builds with every successive mile. Once you discover the huge bluffs and boulder-lined beds further downstream, you will feel the dramatic contrast.

The river also widens severely on the south end as the sprawling native wildlife matures. Tons of wildflowers are visible from just about anywhere along the stream (in spring and summer months) and wild mammals can be seen flocking to the river’s banks.

If you want to attempt the entire length, with all its awe and flux, you can stop off at Clifton Gorge of John Bryan Ohio State Parks. Both sites have sufficient facilities for canoes and kayaks.
