Explore Maumee history, river parks, trails and nearby Toledo attractions with flexible plans for all seven days.

Things to do from Monday through Sunday
-
Monday-Tuesday
Side Cut Metropark
Walk beside the Maumee River, use the picnic areas or choose a short trail close to central Maumee.

Wednesday
Fort Meigs
Check current hours and exhibits, then plan a focused visit to the reconstructed War of 1812 fort in nearby Perrysburg.
-
Thursday-Friday
Fallen Timbers and Friday's downtown drone show
Use Thursday for the battlefield trail, then consider Friday's Party in the Park music and drone show at Toledo's Promenade Park.
-
Saturday-Sunday
Glass City Metropark and riverfront
Finish the week with Toledo riverfront recreation, play areas and paths, checking Metroparks details for current access.
Build an easy Maumee and southwest Toledo plan
