Highbanks Metro Park

No, this is not a proper mtn bike park. Try Alum Creek.

i

Yes!

Not overnight but in the fall when the sun goes down early you can till 9 or 10 either in the big field at the northwest side of highbanks or my favorite spot the bluff overlook off 315. Nice flat area with some light polution from Powell.

It's open anytime there's enough snow to make it safe.

The signs said under 10 people last week and with masks

It was still closed yesterday. Wednesday.

There is a dog trail east end of parking lot at nature center

There are permanent bathrooms with flushable toilets and running water sinks. There are also a few more primitive bathrooms, but better than porta potties

Yes

There is one pet trail. To access it, park at the nature center.

10 person's Max at this time.

Not high banks. Try alum state park. Right on reservoir

I don't have a clue as to the "keep it on the qt" trails etc. are or may be.

Nope

Yes

No. There's a stream on the dog-friendly Coyote Trail, but only a couple inches deep.

Yes you can !

Highbanks is a part of the Columbus Metro Park System - is open dusk to dawn and it is free.

Does not connect to other parks, and they have trails for bicycles(paved) and some where bikes are prohibited(gravel)

I think you can fish at all metro parks

If you wish - along the Olentangy. Just remember that you need a fishing license.

There are two trails where dogs are allowed. The cyotote run trail (pet trail) and the multi-use trail. Both are accessible from the nature center parking lot.

The river or the creeks? The river fluctuates between ankle deep and maybe chest deep (don't go in after a rain). So perhaps 5in-48in. The creeks are usually around ankle deep to knee deep. So 5in-18in.

19.0 Aircraft Any aircraft, airships, hot-air balloons, ultra-light aircraft, hang gliders, or any other structure or machine designed to travel through the air may not ascend or descend in the Park except in an emergency or with the prior written permission of the Executive Director.

It's not the best but you can save the large version of this map http://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/highbanks/park-map/

There is not always a zipline here om regular days. I assume they only set up a zipline for events.

No that i know of under that name. There is also a small seperate park that has a shelter and things that is only accessable from Powell rd.

Yes, they have them by each large shelter, and most of the smaller ones

There is a river that you can canoe or kayak in

There are Barred Owls which are pretty active in the spring. The Nature Center usually has a few owl programs throughout the year.

They close when sun goes down so yes.

When you enter the Park and pass the Nature center first left follow that road around until you see the last parking area on the left. Park there you will see signs to lead back to the Overlook deck to see the Eagles Nest. Hope that helps👍
