Directions
To reach Waterloo Wildlife Research Station, take OH-56 8.2 miles west from OH-682 at Athens, to OH-356. Turn left. This is on a sharp and blind curve on OH-56, so proceed with caution. After turning left on OH-356, turn right almost immediately into the entrance. At the building complex, going straight leads to Buckeye Rocks and the ponds. Going right goes up on the ridge to the trails area.
