Mt. Airy Trail Fest 2025

SEPTEMBER 13, 2025 11AM - 4PM

MT. AIRY FOREST - OAK RIDGE LODGE

What? TrailFest is returning to Mt. Airy Forest! Join us for a celebration of Cincinnati's natural beauty and a day filled with fun and community engagement. The key components of past Trailfests such as live music, food trucks, beer, raffle, kids zone, craft area, organized hikes and trail activities will be back.

Whats New? There will be three nature themed "Green Talk" panel discussions led by individuals with particular areas of expertise followed by guided hikes into the woods that provide a complete educational experience. We will explore topics about connecting children with nature, how to enjoy the outdoors responsibly and conservation of our forests. Further details are forthcoming.

Why Attend? This premier outdoor event is a fantastic way to share your love of nature with like-minded members of the community. It is also a great networking opportunity to increase sales and/or memberships for your organization. All proceeds support the Cincinnati Parks Foundation, helping preserve Mt. Airy Forest and Cincinnati's natural beauty for future generations.
