Hocking Hills Adventures

About Us

Hocking Hills Adventures was founded in 1976 by two clever entrepreneurs, Lewis and Connie Barbini. They thought the Hocking Hills State Parks were great, but after the State Parks there was not much else to do. HVCL became the first business to operate soley on Hocking Hills tourism by making the outdoors accessible to everyone. Today the Hocking Hills boasts ziplines, natural trails, adventures treks, atv rentals, mini-golfs but the truth is it all started with a canoe.

The Family Fun Center was later added in 1993, offering go-karts, miniature golf and a driving range. After the Family Fun Center was built, Hocking Valley Canoe Livery expanded into the camping industry. The Riverside Campground become registered in 2003 and in 2010 they have expanded into the cabin business
