Things to Do in Dublin
Dublin serves as a suburb of Columbus, Ohio along the Scioto River. 77 miles of scenic bike trails and over 65 developed parks with wooded natural areas and river frontage await you within city limits. Not only is the river accessible at several points for small watercraft, the nearby Griggs and O’Shaughnessy reservoirs allow motor boating as well as sailing. The green areas cater to your cultural senses too with many parks giving home to unique assortments of outdoor sculptures, including a 12 feet tall stone portrait of local legend, Leatherlips, as well as Field of Corn, featuring 109 human-sized cement ears of corn and a copper house that honors the region’s Native American culture. The 36.5-acre Thaddeus Kosciuszko Park is heavily wooded and is equipped with 1.7 miles of jogging/hiking trails through rain gardens, a gazebo, fishing ponds, and a sinkhole overlook.
To further enjoy nature and breathe some fresh air, you may opt for the Indian Run Falls with its pristine waterfalls and stream. Annual events, like the Dublin Irish Festival, the largest 3-day Irish festival in the world, and Jack Nicklaus’ PGA Tour Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club have landed the city the Most Outstanding Global Festival and Event City in the World award twice. For a romantic night out, the Dublin Village Tavern, Tucci’s, the Amul India Restaurant, Matt the Miller’s Tavern, the Mezzo, and the Bonefish Grill are ideal choices.
