About the Scioto River
The Scioto River is a major river in central and southern Ohio. Its headwaters are located in Auglaize County. The river then flows to Columbus, the capital city, and then in a southerly direction to Portsmouth, where it flows into the Ohio River. “Scioto” is an American Indian word meaning “deer.”

Indians and Ohio’s early white settlers used the Scioto River for transportation. Water travel was much quicker and cheaper than land travel during this era. Ohio settlers used the Scioto and the state’s other rivers to transport their crops to market. A portion of the Ohio and Erie Canal also used part of the Scioto River. Both Indians and white people settled along the river due to the fertile farmland in the Scioto’s floodplain. Today, modern ships are too large to navigate the Scioto, and Ohioans primarily use the river for recreation and for drinking water. From Scioto River (Ohio History Connection) webpage

Within Franklin County, the Scioto River passes Dublin's Scioto Park, with its Leatherlips sculpture, and between the two sections of the Dublin Kiwanis Riverway Park. It forms the Griggs Reservoir, offering five miles of boating in the near-northwest part of the Columbus metro area. It receives the Olentangy River and passes through the heart of Downtown, where continuing improvements like the Scioto Mile and the Grange Audubon Center draw more people to the riverside.
