Columbus Buckeye Treat Trail

Our sweetest trail yet. It’s nearly impossible to find someone who isn’t nuts about buckeyes! Columbus is home to plenty of delicious buckeye treats (inspired by our state buckeye tree), and with the Columbus Buckeye Treat Trail, you can try them all. This iconic, chocolate-dipped, peanut butter confection will melt in your mouth with creamy perfection, whether it’s your first buckeye or you stopped counting.

Check in at the trail locations to try each unique take on buckeyes and other chocolate and peanut butter treats and earn prizes along the way. Plus, once a month, one lucky Buckeye Treat Trail passholder’s name will be drawn and treated to one year of membership to Chadwick Arboretum, a 30-acre nature and garden preserve location on the campus of The Ohio State University.
