This Ohio Festival Will Have You Believing In Bigfoot

The Pacific Northwest might be best-known as Bigfoot’s stomping grounds, but the legend of Bigfoot is alive and well in the Buckeye State, too. For proof of this, just visit Logan, Ohio, the first weekend of August, when the annual Hocking Hills Bigfoot Festival fills the streets with food, fun, and fur. Happening Aug. 4-5, this is one Ohio festival that will have you believing in Bigfoot and delighting in the wonderfully weird side of the Buckeye State.

While Washington and Oregon are typically Bigfoot's stomping grounds, IF a giant Yeti were to live in Ohio, I think he (or she) would want to live in Hocking Hills. This area is full of hidden caves and lush forests, making it a hospitable and alluring environment for a large, reclusive creature.

This theory is backed up by both science and sightings, with Hocking Hills not only earning quite a hairy reputation among cryptozoologists, but also playing host to a festival that could turn even serious skeptics into Bigfoot believers.

Back for a second year, the Hocking Hills Bigfoot Festival will once again take to the streets of downtown Logan, Ohio, for two days of Sasquatch-filled fun and revelry.

Festival goers can expect activities like a Jeep Show, live music, presentations at the Logan Theater, craft and food vendors, and...

...the fan-favorite "Squatch & Seek" hunt throughout town! Even better? This festival is totally free and 100% family friendly. Because while Bigfoot is a big, hairy dude, he's also an affable fellow and comes in peace.

When the sun sets and the moon rises over Hocking Hills, Ohio, keep your eyes peeled: whether its the annual Bigfoot Festival or not, if there's going to be a Yeti sighting in Ohio, it's going to be here.

Who’s ready to see Bigfoot? Head to Logan, Ohio, Aug. 4-5 for the wholly weird and wonderful Hocking Hills Bigfoot Festival.

Of course, there’s always a reason to visit Hocking Hills, Ohio. Between the caves and the waterfalls and the hiking and kayaking, this region of the Buckeye State is rife with things to see and do! While you’re in town for the Hocking Hills Bigfoot Festival, why not go big and make this well-appointed cabin your home base?
