Youngstown travel guide

Very scenic Metro Park. I would think this is a photographer's dream come fall time.

The highlight of hiking the Gorge trail is the many scenic views of Lanterman's Mill.

Lanterman’s Mill was built in 1845-46 by German Lanterman and Samuel Kimberly.

The mill was restored in 1982-85 and operates today as it did in the 1800s, grinding corn, wheat, and buckwheat.
