Ohio Amish Country is beautifully charming no matter the season.
Taking the Amish Country Scenic Byway warms your heart in ways you can’t describe, making you long for home, family and simpler times. That’s why we think it’s one of the most scenic and and under-appreciated drives you can take in Ohio. (For specific routes and other information, click here.)
Along this scenic byway, you can see for miles and miles. The homes are spread far apart, and the fields are vast.

Along the way, you might even see snow rollers (pictured), which is a rare meteorological phenomenon that occurs when large snowballs are formed naturally via wind.
