We've extended last year’s inaugural tour to spend even more time this year in Ohio’s scenic Amish countryside.  For hill and scenery enthusiasts who want the challenge of Ohio’s beautiful rolling hills, this tour has it all: the finest accommodations, catered dinners, and vistas that inspire.  Ohio’s Holmes County boasts the largest population of Amish in the country.  Journey through time with us as we sample the daily life and history of Ohio’s Amish communities—but bring your climbing gears and your thirst for adventure.
