For a town the size of Belpre, people are amazed at the beautiful parks and the recreation which is provided for people of all ages. There are sports for young and old alike, concerts in the park during the summer and holiday lights in December, which has caused the town of Belpre to be known as the “City of Lights.”

There are many outdoor activities, including walking trails, golfing, fishing, boating, picnics, etc. Visitors enjoy all the beauty of the parks in our town. You can relax in Depot Park and see the restored caboose, picnic under the beautiful trees in Howes Grove Park, or if you are looking for a place to launch your boats, (nearby camping facilities), or vacation, spend a day in beautiful Civitan Park. Located on the banks of the Ohio River and overlooking the historic Blennerhassett Island and Mansion, Belpre, Ohio is your place to spend a day……or several days a week during the spring, summer and fall seasons. Come take a drive through the Ohio Scenic byways managed by the Ohio River Trails, or take an excursion to the Island on Ruble’s Sternwheeler. Relaxation is something to look forward to in the Belpre area.

A few of the annual activities are the Founders Day Festival in April, The Annual Belpre Area Homecoming Celebration in August, October Apple Butter Stir-Off, the Holiday Lights Festival November/January and much more. There is much to do and see in the Belpre area….and we look forward to seeing you soon.
