Buckeye Bud’s Adventure Woods is a wonderfully whimsical playground where kids can hop, jump, and limbo their way through the balance logs, put on a performance at the Nature Theater, or play a game or two of tic tac toe.
Zip your way through the woods on two cables designed for kids of all ages to enjoy. Plus, the observation tower is a great place to see turtles and frogs in Buttonbush Bog.
Attention: The ziplines at Buckeye Bud’s are currently down. We apologize for any inconvenience and will update this note when they are open again.
Please note that Buckeye Buds Adventure Woods is not staffed, and adults are responsible for actively supervising children in their care.
Things to discover
Interactive natural play space | Children can build a log shelter or hop, jump and limbo their way through the obstacle course.
Search for frogs and turtles | Search for frogs and turtles in nearby Buttonbush Bog from new heights atop our observation tower.
Test your balance | Children can test their balance on logs and stones as they make their way through the obstacle course made of natural materials.
For your safety:
- A handwashing station is available, but parents assume the risk associated with touching play surfaces and children congregating
- Face coverings are required when in close proximity to others
