Highbanks Metro Park | Columbus, Ohio

- Опубликовано: 17 июл 2024
- Ohio doesn't usually come to mind when you think of grand vistas, long hiking trails or dramatic bluffs. Highbanks provides a great place for all people as one of the best spots in Columbus, Ohio and the Midwest for a casual day hiking. The Bald Eagles, shallow river and natural play and bushcraft area is a tremendously fun resource.

This park is 15 - 20 minuets from my home in Dublin Ohio. It's my favorite park next to Quarry Trails Metro Park in Columbus. My kids had many birthday parties and just days filled with adventure at Highbanks while growing up here. They are now both adults and we all love and appreciate this beautiful park and still visit every chance we get. Thank you for this gorgeous footage of this beautiful space that my family and I have made so many great memories in. Cheers!
I often wondered if you guys were "Buckeyes" when I viewed your early videos (love them all!). I graduated from high school just south of Columbus. Thank you for this video. Highbanks Metro Park didn't exist when I joined the Air Force in 1965. I began my hiking and backpacking at age 10 and the Olentangy and Scioto Rivers were my playgrounds MY favorite camping areas were in the Hocking Hills (Old Man's Cave) country and water skiing at White Lake. Your photography and communication skills are what I love best about your videos.
When I was a kid we had a wild area behind our housing development and I gotta say, building forts was one of our main activities, watching you make your little lean to really takes me back!
I'm glad you guys made this video. Some people think that you have to travel far from the city or out of your state to go and see all this natural beauty when in reality, it exists in your backyard. It's hard to believe, but almost every region has a unique ecosystem that has flora and fauna unlike any other. You don't always have to travel to the mountains or remote wildernesses to experience nature, and that's a great message that people need to hear. You got to help preserve not only the wilderness, but the urban parks as well.
Raise your hand if you wish these guys were your friends IRL!! ✋🏻
raising my hand... can't find the emoji. I know most of these are years old but I really have enjoyed them. Thanks
Nice video on Highbanks. I live right down the road from it and have been there many times. It definitely needs some recognition.
What a great video! You guys have come SO FAR from those early efforts and it has been a pleasure to watch your growth. The quality of both your content and the beautiful shots of nature is outstanding! As a 41 year veteran science teacher, I've seen lots of videos, and I can assure you that this is as good as any I have used!
I hope you guys continue. Thanks for doing one so close to home!! Rock on!!!
That's funny you should say that because this was actually filmed in 2015 haha. Maybe our post production skills have improved! Thanks for watching!
That glass bottle arrowhead is amazing!
Marvelous movie. Adventure Archives taught me one big but simple lesson:
Appreciate your own backyard.
When you visited my home town Kaiserslautern and the surrounding Palatinate Forest last summer, you where so mesmerized by all of this. I got to see my own backyard through the eyes of strangers. This made me recognize the beauty of this landscape that was somewhat ordinary and boring to me. This movie is yet an other example of this. Beauty is so close, but may be overlooked because you have seen it so often or you can't think of something so beautiful being so close. But when you open your eyes and mind you will be mesmerized.
You're absolutely right Jochen, it's so easy to take for granted the beauty that surrounds us. Sometimes it just takes a 3rd party to remind us!
Ale-8 bottle for the win. I like how several of Andrew's botany points in this video show up in the Shawnee episode as well. Thanks for sharing!
My daughter and I have just recently stumbled upon your videos and we love them! I live in Cincinnati, and she lives in Columbus. We are headed to New River Gorge for the first time in a couple of weeks for our first backpacking trip.
I love highbanks park! One of the first places I’d go hike when i first moved to Columbus
Another Indian mound is in Dublin along emerald parkway. Its called the holder-wright earthworks, it has some pretty cool history.
Not only is this a great production but it's awesome to remind people that nature can be experienced very close to home.
you guys are amazing, PLEASE continue to put out your content. It is a jewel of youtube.
It's cool that you guys are an Ohio based channel. Love going to highbanks and other metro parks around Ohio.
You guys have mastered the art of making trails and plants super entertaining
I appreciate your passion for mother Earth y'all. all things are apart of all things.
Thanks so much for the kind words! Very true :)
Thank you for showing the world that there are still decent, caring citizens in America, despite the ignorant boorish administration.
Y'all are going to be working for NG or Discovery in the future. You make engaging nature docs with great production value
Love you guys. This is important, even*critical* work. Keep it up!
Great adventure guys, thanks!
Highbanks is my favorite park in Columbus! Love it
I loved getting to see the park office/ nature center at the beginning. I'd like to see more of this when you go to national/ state parks that have facilities like that.
Hey guys, thanks for the trip down memory lane! We lived in Columbus for a little while and Highbanks was by far our favorite park there (though we hit Sharon Woods quite often as well). Really cool to see some familiar sights and discover some new things with you all!
Jill was a lovely guide during your visit! I really enjoyed this style of video - and I've rewatched every one of your guys' videos a couple times over by now hehe. You guys are so special.
Really cool video. Highbanks is one of my favorites as well
Dude, you guys are killing it. So fun watching.
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoy the video :)
I just linked to this video from my High Banks Metro Park November vlog video. This was so cool, I live just a few minutes from here! My sister couldn't find any pawpaws in Columbus this year!
I love that you guys can find the beauty and wonder of nature close to home, even though you have been to so many fabulous and far-off places. Your videos are perfect pandemic viewing, I don't want drama, I want to relax and think about great times shared with friends.
I love that you did this video. The format was great and it was especially nice that you reached out to the park and got them involved.
This was such an amazing video on the Highbanks Park! If I am ever in Ohio I'll have to check it out!
that log shelter looked real cosy, eat your heart out ray mears, im looking forward to camping in the new year when it gets warmer
Great video. Learning while enjoying is always best.
Love this vid. This is my favorite kind. I have books like backroads of Texas and Kentucky. The adventure of places that are off the beaten path, or at least not known to everybody in the world draws me in a big way. Also your vids of state and city parks are about noticing and appreciating what you have right in your own backyard. It’s really awesome. Where I used to live in Dallas, there was a place called the Heard museum and Nature Preserve that was a private park created by a lady whose family had owned it since the 1800s. She loved nature and wanted to share all that she loved about her land with others. It was such a cool place and this vid reminded me of it. There were these huge burr oak trees there, and wetlands and rocks and hills to climb. Actually there were a bunch of awesome nature preseverves and parks right in the city. Vids like this make me homesick for my favorite places there. That’s the only down side.
Really enjoy Andrew's extensive knowledge of the flora and fauna! My wife and I were just at this park a couple of months ago for the first time. Clearly we've much more to see here, based on this video. :P Great job as usual!
Idiot.
Very Good!! Maybe someday we can meetup in Ohio for an adventure. Nice Pictured Rocks footage in the beginning!👍
Another gem guys. Thank you!
Wow I want to go just from your vid. I hope you guys can do this for more parks, they’d be lucky to have you guys.
Awesome. I love these shorter episodes showcasing smaller parks in local areas. That is something I would like to do for my area. Lots of forests in my city alone... main reason why London's nickname is the forest city. Robby passed 4 different parks/trails when he came to my place and I am just a short drive off the highway. Thanks for the inspiration guy. Hopefully one day I can share my nature with you😁
Thanks for the tree and plant info, I really enjoy it!
Guys I am very suprised that your channel has only 45k subs. I wish U will have more and more viewers all over the world because its worth it :) best wishes from Poland for a next year and many adventures to places that are unapprieciaced. Cheers!
This was a departure from your usual format, and it was very well done. It was informative and nicely edited. As usual, you pulled together a great video.
Enjoyed the way your expanding into different video experiences. I do love the other adventures as well. I think this park is so very awesome and the information is great wouldn't mind more of these now and then. But looking forward to a good backpacking adventure. Great work guys.
I love that you value your local park so much. It reminds me a bit of my local park, Murphy Hanrehan Park Reserve in southern MN.
Absolutely beautiful and really enjoy the narration .....enjoyable video....great work guys
This video was put together beautifully! I love the interviews with the park Ranger. I'd love to see something similar done for the Hocking Hills region.
As much as I enjoy the videos of your grand global adventures, I have to say that the regional park videos are my favorite!
I really enjoyed this. It has a different feel to it and the connection to my home in Ohio makes me kinda homesick.
Another awesome video! I can't wait to hit Ohio and do some hiking! Keep up the great work! Your videos are always interesting, funny, informative, and relaxing! Best videos around!! Thanks for sharing, you guys are awesome!!
It's great to see you guys back East, your original stomping grounds! Keep up the great work as always!
Jesus i forgot about your channel and im so lucky that i got a notification out of nowhere.
Have to watch all the videos that i missed so hyped👌
So cool this is within 2 hours of me, love the fact you guys are so close to me.
I honestly love Ohio's nature. It's not the best of course, but it's still really charming in its own right. Between the national park and other metro parks in the northeast and Appalachia in the southeast, there's a ton to see! I still think Mill Creek Park in Youngstown for example is one of the best places to hike
I'd say I know every inch of Highbanks. I always hike and adventure there.
Wonderful video!
Excellent review, I like the inclusion of plant info. Thanks for posting 👍
Wonderfully informative, loved it
my home town! Keep up the great vids
Awesome as always! This show could easily be on the OLN or Travel.
Nice video and a great park. I go there all the time to take photos. I'll have to keep my peepers open for the puff balls!
This was a very interesting episode. Loved the scene at 5:423! lol
Loved this
Great editing to break the topics up into chapters. Wonderful music too!
I really liked the chapters as well, and Jill was great.
Great gideo!
I just went to high banks today for a feildtrip
That's a sweet park! You guys deserve so many more subscribers
y'all are the coolest! awesome video :D
Very nice video. Lots of hidden gems here in Ohio that most people never see.
Great video! Andrew rubbing the leaf on his face was hilarious. I love how naturally Robby and Bryan serve as audience surrogates for Andrew to naturally deliver information to 😆
very informative👍
thanks guys
Great video!
My family and I are recent transplants to Columbus. We’ll have to check this out.
I love this park! great video gents👍
You were in my favorite park!
Your editing is getting much better ... not to imply that it was bad before. I've always admired the production quality that you guys are able to produce. But the cuts in this episode just seem very crisp. My only comment is that the narration feels rushed. I also like how you guys broke this episode up in to themed chapters.
Keep them coming. :-)
Awesome!
Another Great Video. :)
Awesome park! I have always wanted to try paw paws, but they don't grow in my region.
There is a Pawpaw festival in September in Albany Ohio near Athens.
You guys should check out PawPaw festival in September near Athens.
You might also enjoy Duck Creek Log Jam bluegrass festival in June :D
That's an awesome park! we have a few here in eastern Mass, were it's like that till you get to the top of the hills. I've always wanted to try Paw Paw, I've been retraining myself from invertebrates to plants, and kept seeing them in books. But was disappointed when I found that they weren't in my range.
Thanks for sharing this video, i definitely want to check out that park! If you guys head up here to visit the CVNP would love to meet you. I’m akways like Andrew would know what this weird thing is lol i have photographed tons of mushrooms but never knew their names. I find the same thing out as well there a small park in Parma but it’s so dense it feels like you’re not even in Ohio. I could show you guys some really cool areas. Bedford Reservation is really breathtaking. Thanks for another awesome video you guys. Would love to see video on Mohican park
This would be a good park for the meetup.
Well done as always. Andrew, your knapping skills are quite good. Where did you learn?
This is my shake down park, great 6 mile loop with cool off trail spots.
There is also a nesting pair of Bald Eagles and a great sledding hill in winter.
We actually recorded a sledding video that was really terrible we never released.
Hi Andrew, at 4:42, there is a good sized green paw paw fruit near the center of the view.
Great video. From Michigan.
Do you guys live in Columbus? I do and I go to Highbanks multiple times a week. Love it there!
Nice
I didn't realize you guys lived so close. I'm only about 2 hours away or less from columbus.
Great & very informative video, enjoyed the short but sweet format as well. Is this filmed circa 2015?
Haha yup. Thanks for watching!
Plan on doing a video about CVNP? There's like eight different parks along a river in a valley.
Real nice guys, similar to here in western ny
If you haven't already, you should check out Flint Ridge near Heath, OH. You don't have to go when they're "open". You can find flint rocks all along the sides of roads in that area and bring a bucket-full home with you. www.flintridgeohio.org (Also, I've been enjoying your hiking/camping trips around SE Ohio. I work for OSU CFAES as a graphic designer and have an Environmental Education degree from SENR. I'd love to do more hiking and camping in SE Ohio, and your videos have my GET-OUTDOORS juices flowing. Thanks!)
Oh awesome, I've been there before for a class trip I think! I didn't realize you could take flint home with you though. We'll definitely have to go back and check that out sometime - thank you for the suggestion!
Also, glad you enjoy the videos! I bet we mutually know some people from the Environmental Science dept. -Andrew
Andrew, do you know how the US handles invasive plants? Cause I study Landscape Planning in Germany and we always argue whether they belong to our German flora now or not. And most often in projects, we would try to avoid them or remove them.
What general area of the park is the giant Sycamore tree locate? Im a Central Ohio resident that's never seen it.
brian pops out at 6:14 and the video begins
Catalpa worm! Let's go fishing...
Can you camp there?
No. Highbanks Metro Park closes at 10PM in Summer and 8PM in Fall/Winter/Spring as far as I know.
I had Genis make it poison. I lied, it's actually boxelder
