Welcome to Logan. The Gateway to Ohio's Scenic wonderland.
Travelers seeking a little piece and quiet, and the freedom to roam
the wilderness, look no further. Nestled deep in the woods of
Hocking County lies a small town with the population of 17,701
friendly faces. Established by Thomas Worthington, Hocking County
was formed on January, 3, 1818.
Logan, Ohio is surrounded by many well know and beautiful
places. Burr Oak, Wayne National Forest, Hocking Hills and The
Buckeye Trail, just to name a few. Logan is a great place to start
or end your journey into the heartland of Southern Ohio.
Native American Indians that reside in these hills say that the
waters take shape of a bottle, when flowing through the valley's
river. Hence the word "Hocking", It's originality comes from the
Delaware language, "Hock- hock-ing," which means "Bottle
River".
