The trails, “perfect for leisurely day hikes,” were nominated by an expert panel, then voted on by readers, according to the publication.

Whispering Cave landed in the #4 spot on this year’s list.

“Whispering Cave is just one of the many hikes in Hocking Hills State Park, which stretches across 2,356 acres.
