On this awesome Educational tour we will traverse the beautiful and pristine High Rock private forest sanctuary viewing dozens of plants and trees several of the plants will change throughout the season so the tour will be unique to season. This is great tour to bring a notebook, a camera, and your sense of adventure.  Not only will we be learning about, tasting, smelling, and experiencing this amazing ecosystem but guests will also enjoy the beauty of the Rocks, Cliffs, Canyons, and unique rock formations at High Rock Adventures-Hocking Hills Ecotours. This tour will last approximately 3 hours, larger groups may take longer.


This Eco-Educational Tour operates mid-April through mid-October. This tour is recommended for older children typically 12+ and adults as this tour goes into more depth than our typical tours unless your younger child has a middle school or higher attention span. We will be going up high on a few of our cliffs and going into a rock canyon, and a few other unique ecosystems throughout the tour.  This tour is also the only tour at High Rock that does not offer a children's discount as it is geared more towards edible and medicinal plants and trees and does not focus on our rock adventures as most other tours do. We do however offer a group discounted rate starting with 5 people. If you have a younger child that is really into nature education, we are happy to accommodate them.

This tour requires a minimum of 2 people. If you are a single traveler you may reserve a space and it will be confirmed when others have joined the tour. If others are already on the tour, your tour will be confirmed immediately. If you prefer to go as a single or want the tour confirmed; there is single supplement add on, to cover the cost of guides and training for one person. Please call or email us for details.
