Where Conservation Meets Preservation

WHERE CONSERVATION MEETS PRESERVATION

Established in 1990, the Norma Johnson Center consists of 303 acres of land with three different trails in east central Ohio. This property is owned by the Tuscarawas County Commissioners and operated by the Tuscarawas County Park Department.

The nature trails are open from dawn until dusk every day. Entry is free and open to the public.

Our three main trails are open to the public year round, from dawn until dusk. The Johnson Loop is off Hidden Hollow Lane. Most of our programs occur in the Conservation Loop, off Conservation Drive, near the red barn. The Preservation Loop which begins by the yellow pole barn, is across from the New Pointe Church.
