Working Together Bears Fruit for Ohio Wine Industry
Two French oak casks stand out from the rest of the barrels in the cellar of Ferrante Winery and Ristorante here. Compared to the typical wine barrel, they’re larger and quite beautiful: The smooth lines and natural wood grain reflect high-quality craftsmanship and the spotless steel hardware provides a pleasant contrast to the wood.
A fitting vessel for what rests inside – an exclusive red blend that can be bought only at the winery based in Geneva. What the wine represents makes it all the more singular.
Lake Erie Canopy Tours: Climbing through the obstacles
Zipping through the sky at Lake Erie Canopy Tours
Try ziplining on the shores of Lake Erie, in Geneva-on-the-Lake
I’m 60 feet off the ground, staring at an aqua-striped Lake Erie. Ready, set, go! I’m flying toward the water at 25 miles per hour, hooked to a metal cable.
A shriek slips out of my lips. And I grin, reveling in the weightlessness.
Lake Erie Canopy Tours give grown-ups a chance to play.
The complex at the Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake ,on the state park, includes eight ziplines, three adult high-ropes courses and one children’s challenge course. About 500 guests have tried the activities since a soft opening last September. The lodge hopes 14,000 visitors will take part this year.

Ohio's Lake Erie Canopy Tours looking up
Just don’t look down.
Take in the gorgeous views of Lake Erie shoreline, the blue sky, the budding trees, The Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake in Ohio, the turkey vultures.
OK, maybe not the turkey vultures, of which there are many sailing around. Don’t worry. They’re not there for you. You are safely hooked — twice — with heavy-duty clips attached on one end to your seriously up-close-and-personal harness, and on the other to steel cables as thick as your thumb anchored into thick trees with what looks like some high-rise hardware.

Trip of the Week: Lodge at Geneva-On-The-Lake Holiday Packages
Northeast Ohio has its very own 8-track zip line course and we tried it
Picture this: you're floating through the trees. Below is a peaceful running stream. Off to your left is a dense canopy of trees, and to the right blue water for as far as the eye can see. This might sound like a magical journey in a far-away place but for me it was an afternoon last week zip lining an hour outside of Cleveland.
The location? Lake Erie Canopy Tours, which can be found at The Lodge at Geneva-on-the-Lake in Geneva State Park.
