About Athens

athensTucked away in the rolling hills of Southeast Ohio, Athens couples the country feel of rural Appalachia with the hip ambience of a major university town. Whether you’re visiting for a day or a week, there’s plenty to do in and around Athens besides carving in our 11' bowl.

Skaters and nonskaters in your group? Not a problem! Within easy walking distance of the skate park, you have access to a myriad of recreational opportunities. The Athens Community Center is in front of the park and includes baskball courts, exercise equipment and meeting space. Outdoor facilities include tennis courts, two sand volleyball courts, an inline hockey rink, basketball courts, playgrounds, a shelter house for picnics and restrooms. The city pool is also located close by. On a hot day, a great option is to skate in the morning and then take a dip in the pool! Interested in a bike ride? Check out the 19 mile long Hockhocking Adena bikeway that runs directly behind the park.
