Presidential Pathways Ohio Scenic Byway winds through Hamilton and Butler counties in southwestern Ohio. It traces the legacy of the region's two presidents, William Henry Harrison and his grandson Benjamin Harrison. The route's centerpiece is the Harrison Tomb in North Bend, a 60-foot marble obelisk set in a 14-acre park honoring the ninth U.S. president, reached via Cliff Road off US 50. Wooded, rolling hills give way in places to steep cliffs and wide overlooks, and the corridor still carries historic canals, tunnels, and covered bridges that were engineering showcases in their day. Small-town life carries the rest of the drive, with town-square concerts, country fairs, and craft festivals scheduled through much of the year.
