[August, 2010] The Avoca Trailhead Park is a small, but very busy place with cyclists, runners, and walkers starting out on a trip from the paved parking lot or making a pit-stop to utilize the restrooms, water fountains, and small shaded picnic area. With a big enough grassy field, people playing soccer, baseball, frisbee, and such can easily utilize this park as well. The hiking trail is fairly short, about a 15 minute hike one-way, and ends at the banks of the Little Miami River. Caution should be taken after rain as the water may be high. I recommend holding hands! If the water is low, however, there is a large "beach" of smooth stones to wander upon while getting a good look at this lovely State and National Scenic River as it rounds a bend.
