About GoScram

GoScram helps you discover what's right around you: parks, trails, lakes, and places you never knew existed.

What It Is

GoScram is a place-first outdoor discovery platform built for Ohio. We catalog every park, trail, lake, nature preserve, and outdoor destination across the state — with real details like hours, amenities, activities you can do there, and links to official websites. Instead of searching Google and wading through results, you come to GoScram and see everything near you on one map.

Who It's For

Anyone who wants to spend more time outside. Weekend hikers who want to try a new trail. Families looking for a Saturday adventure. Anglers scouting new water. People who just moved to an area and have no idea what parks are nearby. If you've ever thought “there must be something good close to me” — GoScram shows you exactly what's there.

How It Works

Share your location (or pick a city) and GoScram shows you every outdoor place nearby — sorted by distance, filterable by type. Each place page tells you what you can do there, shows current weather conditions, lists upcoming events, and links to the official website for the latest info.

Browse by category (state parks, trails, lakes, campgrounds) or explore the full map to find hidden gems you drive past every day without knowing they exist.

Our Data

GoScram pulls from public, authoritative sources to build the most complete directory of Ohio outdoor places:

  • Ohio Department of Natural Resources — state parks, forests, wildlife areas, waterways
  • National Park Service — Cuyahoga Valley National Park and other federal sites
  • Metro Parks districts — county and regional park systems across Ohio
  • OpenStreetMap — trails, water access points, and park boundaries
  • Open-Meteo — current weather conditions (shown as passive context, not recommendations)
