Summer in Lancaster, OH is the time to get out and enjoy the fine sunny weather. Winter is now firmly in the rearview mirror, and we have many different ways to enjoy the summer sun. These are a few of the best summer activities you can enjoy near our beautiful city.

Rising Park

Rising Park is one of the most beautiful parks in Ohio. Its crowing jewel is Mount Pleasant, a sandstone bluff that rises over 300 feet and provides magnificent views of Lancaster and the surrounding area. The hike up the mountain is perfect for almost everyone, as it’s not a taxing climb, and there are places to rest on the way.

A kid’s playground is available, as well as pickleball, horseshoes, and tennis courts. If you prefer a more relaxing time in the sun, covered picnic tables are available where you can eat and while away a summer’s day. Catch-and-release fishing is also allowed on the tranquil lake. Rising Park can be found at 203 E Fair Avenue, Lancaster.

Valley Zipline Tours

If you enjoy an adrenaline rush and want an unforgettable experience at the same time. Valley Zipline is the place to go. It’s a wonderful experience for the whole family you’ll remember for years to come. The full course comprises nine lines. After you’ve completed the ground school, where they explain the procedure and teach you various techniques, you’re ready to go.

The first five lines take you 15 to 40 feet into the air, and you’ll be moving at 25 mph. From here you move onto the 1,000-foot-long monster zipline, where you’ll glide at 120 feet about the ground at 40 mph. The adventurous can also try the quarter-mile zip, where you’ll cross two bodies of water at over 50 mph. Valley Zipline can be found at 3465 Duffy Road, Lancaster.

Jet pack Water Adventure

Fun in the water is part of every great summer, and Jet Pack provides a new way to have fun. A jet pack uses two streams of low-pressure water to safely push you up to 30 feet into the air. We love the fun and excitement of being safely lifted high above the crystal-clear lake.

If you prefer something a little different, you can also try the flyboard. This board has a hose connected to a watercraft, and riding it is an experience all of its own. Jet Pack is located at 2715 Sugar Grove Road Southeast, Lancaster.

Your 2023 Jeep Compass Sport 4×4 is built to take you anywhere you want to go. Its 24 MPG in the city and 32 MPG on the highway means you’ll want to spend even more time outside and enjoy the Ohio summer. Book your next service today at Bob-Boyd CJR.
