Find a cheap flight to Akron

Akron is called the 'City of Invention' but was formerly known as the Rubber Capital of the World.ﾠ It is one of the most quintessentially American cities.ﾠ It is also a city that is constantly reinventing itself. For a city of its size, Akron has an unusual amount of culture on offer. One of its latest and most monumental additions is the Akron Art Museum. It is the beautiful marriage of three centuries with its modern glass and steel structure by celebrated Viennese architectural firm Coop Himmelblau. This is the perfect enclosure for its permanent collection beginning with 1850 and including work from today. Just south of Akron is Portage Lake State Park. With a 900-foot-long beach edging Turkeyfoot Lake, there are all kinds of water sports on offer to go along with sunning, fishing and swimming. Itﾒs a great place for a picnic, light hiking and camping, while in winter you can ice skate or go cross country skiing.

From flat land surrounding Columbus and Toledo to the rolling hills near the Ohio River and Cincinnati to coal-mining country in the Appalachian Mountain foothills, Ohio might offer you a few surprises.
