As the weather warms up, we all love to spend afternoons outside, and what's more fun than a day of tubing in Ohio? If you live in south-central Ohio, you're right next to one of the most fun outdoor adventure purveyors in the state: Hocking Hills Adventures. The scenery in the Hocking Hills region is to die for, and what better way to experience it than from a tube or canoe floating breezily down the river? All that time outdoors is sure to whet your appetite, so afterward, you'll want to fill up your tank and hit the road to Taqueria El Fogoncito, an authentic Mexican restaurant with some of the best tacos in the state. The whole trip is right around an hour and you won't even go through an entire tank of gas. Check out the route on one of the most exciting tubing trips in Hocking Hills on Google Maps.

Not within driving distance of south-central Ohio? We've got several fun pairings of places you can check out in other corners of the state!

You'll want to fill up with gas before hitting the road, but don't worry, we promise you won't go through an entire tank of gas even if you take the scenic route on this epic tubing adventure in Ohio.

One of the great things about living in Ohio is all the outdoor adventures you can have, but we're particularly fond of the "lazy floating down the river" method of enjoying the surroundings!

Hocking Hills Adventures in the region of Hocking Hills, Ohio, offers all kinds of fun for the whole family. Their specialty is river trips via canoe, kayak, or tube, but they also offer miniature golf, go-karting, and horseback riding.

The location even has a campground if you want to stay the whole weekend, which we are 100% for.

The Hocking Hills area has so much natural beauty, and what better way to experience it than from the water?

About an hour away is the delicious Tacos El Fogoncito for some of the best tacos in Ohio. You're sure to work up an appetite after all that time enjoying nature!

Tacos El Fogoncito offers a variety of authentic dishes, including tacos, tortas, burritos, and quesadillas.

Their tacos al pastor (traditional spit-grilled pork tacos) are among their most popular dishes. Columbus is famous for having incredible tacos, and Tacos El Fogoncito's are among the best!

The restaurant offers daily specials and lots of different options, including vegetarian and kid-friendly dishes. You'll want to wash down your meal with Mexico's favorite soda, Jarritos, straight from a glass bottle.

Who would've thought you'd find the best tacos in small-town Ohio?!
