Maple Sugaring in the Hills

Adventures in Hocking Hills come in all forms. This time around, it is a special event named Maple Sugaring in the Hills. Each year, crowds head out to the hills to experience the art of maple sugar harvesting. Maple trees are notorious for collecting starch in the warmer months and converting it to sugary sap in late winter. From interacting with professionals to spending quality time in the wild, here is why this event should be on your to-do list.

First-Hand Maple Sap Harvesting Experience

The main activity for the event is maple sap harvesting. In cold areas like Ohio, maple trees store excess starch in their trunks in preparation for winter. With time, this starch is naturally converted into sugar sap, which is at its highest in the late months of winter.

The process of harvesting the sugar-filled sap is the logic behind this event. Apart from witnessing the harvesting process, you also interact with professionals. Individuals handling the maple syrup processing are always there to answer your queries and clear your doubts about natural sugar from trees.
