Columbus, Georgia
The Scioto Mile is a stunning network of parks and trails that reconnects downtown Columbus to the Scioto River. This urban oasis features 175 acres of lush parkland, stretching from the Arena District to the Whittier Peninsula, and includes the promenade, Bicentennial Park, and Genoa Park.
A highlight of the mile is the massive interactive fountain in Bicentennial Park, which covers 15,000 square feet. The area also features the country's largest free outdoor climbing wall at the Scioto Audubon Metro Park and a series of signature bronze deer sculptures, transforming the riverfront into a vibrant destination for recreation and events.
