The beauty of Hocking Hills is that no two visits ever have to be the same. One group might spend the day hiking to waterfalls and sandstone caves, while another might sip wine at a local vineyard or glide above the forest canopy on a zipline. With the Fun Bus “Build Your Own Adventure” experience, you can design a day that perfectly matches your group’s interests, pace, and sense of adventure.

Instead of following a rigid itinerary, this experience puts you in control. Choose from a wide variety of stops along the Route 33 Trail corridor, stretching from Columbus through Canal Winchester, Buckeye Lake, Lancaster, Logan, Nelsonville, and into the heart of Hocking Hills. Along the way, Fun Bus partners with local businesses and attractions to offer unique perks like tastings, private tours, and exclusive experiences arranged specifically for guests.
Start with the Natural Wonders
Most adventures in Hocking Hills begin with the landscape itself. The region is famous for its dramatic sandstone cliffs, hidden caves, waterfalls, and forested trails. Visitors can explore iconic spots like Old Man’s Cave, Ash Cave, and Cedar Falls, where scenic hikes lead to breathtaking views and peaceful moments in nature. Trails range from easy walks to more challenging routes, making them accessible for nearly any type of traveler.
Whether you’re traveling with friends, family, or coworkers, starting your day among these natural wonders sets the tone for an unforgettable experience.
Add Adventure to the Mix
If your group is looking for excitement, Hocking Hills offers plenty of adrenaline-filled options. Ziplining through the treetops provides a bird’s-eye view of the forest canopy and rocky cliffs, while kayaking or canoeing down the Hocking River offers a more relaxed but equally scenic adventure. Horseback riding, rock climbing, and other outdoor activities make it easy to turn a simple trip into a full-blown adventure day.
The best part is that you can mix and match these activities. Start with a morning hike, follow it with a paddle on the river, and finish the afternoon with a thrilling zipline tour.
Discover Local Flavor Along the Route
Adventure isn’t only found on the trails. The communities surrounding Hocking Hills are full of small-town charm, local breweries, wineries, restaurants, and artisan shops. With the “Build Your Own Adventure” concept, groups can add stops for tastings, meals, or shopping throughout the day.
From cozy wineries tucked into the hills to lively craft breweries and locally owned eateries, these stops add flavor and personality to your journey. Many partners along the Route 33 corridor offer exclusive experiences for Fun Bus guests, creating moments you won’t find on a typical self-guided trip.
Travel Together, Stress-Free
Planning a day in Hocking Hills can be complicated when coordinating parking, directions, and multiple stops. That’s where Fun Bus makes the difference. With professional drivers, comfortable vehicles, and local expertise, your group can relax and enjoy the experience while someone else handles the logistics.
Instead of worrying about traffic or navigating winding back roads, you can spend your time focusing on the fun—taking photos, enjoying the scenery, and sharing the adventure with friends.
Your Adventure, Your Way
The magic of Hocking Hills is its flexibility. Some groups want a day filled with outdoor thrills, while others prefer a relaxing afternoon of wine, scenic views, and great conversation. With Fun Bus’s Build Your Own Adventure, you can create an experience that reflects exactly what your group wants most.
