Parks
Magnolia Trail
Take a hike along our beautiful 2 mile Magnolia Trail, experience diverse wildlife and enjoy our rich canal history along the way. Our beautiful trail is situated along old towpaths used back in the late 1800s to guide canal boats through our many lock systems. Magnolia trail feature 2 main loops to enjoy together or separately. The Nye loop is named after a famous musician who wrote lyrics about Lockbourne's canal and lock systems back in the late 1800s. The Maine loop is our second trail named after the last canal boat to pass through Lockbourne down the Ohio & Erie Canal System. Both of our trail loops offer beauty and something unique you will only find here in OUR Village of Lockbourne.
Locke Meadow Park
Our Village's largest park boasts spacious grounds and parking for cookouts, birthday parties or any special event you may need. A newly remodeled shelter house and fun playground equipment make a perfect retreat for the whole family to enjoy. Basketball courts and our 2 mile Magnolia trail are perfect for the athlete in you.
Beat the crowd and reserve our remodeled shelter house for $25 for the whole day. Security deposit also required but refunded upon completed inspection after the event.
Veterans Park
Our newly relocated Veterans Park is a tribute to all of our American Military Hero's. Lockbourne has deep military ties with the Tuskegee Airmen and many other branches of the military. Until 1974 our neighboring Rickenbacker Air Force Base was named Lockbourne Air Force Base. Our Village is PROUD to pay tribute to our Veterans.
Boot Jack Square
Located in the towns center, Boot Jack Square is our smallest park but plays an huge role in our communications of events and activities. Not only does Boot Jack provide playground equipment for the children, it is also our communications center. Our Village information sign and our events board are both featured inside the park area. Have fun and stay informed.
