State

The Darby Creek system constitutes some of the most important natural resources in central Ohio. Flowing through rich agricultural bottomland of Union, Madison, Franklin and Pickaway counties, the creek's valley ranges from gently rolling topography in the upper reaches to relatively steep and heavily wooded land in the lower portions. Both streams were included in the national scenic rivers program in 1994. (Ohio DNR)
