Ohio Amish Country is beautifully charming no matter the season.

Taking the Amish Country Scenic Byway during the winter is a special experience though. It warms your heart in ways you can’t describe, making you long for home, family and simpler times. That’s why we think it’s the most scenic and enjoyable drive you can take in Ohio during the winter months—and why we think you should take this particular drive this winter. (For specific routes and other information, click here.)

Along this scenic byway, you can see for miles and miles. The homes are spread far apart, and the fields are vast.
