Waverly

Among Ohio’s communities, Waverly stands out as the seat of Pike County in the Scioto River valley. It lies in southern Ohio, where the broad valley floor meets the rolling terrain of the state’s Appalachian region, creating a setting unlike that of the larger cities farther north. The Pike County Courthouse remains a focal point of civic life in the compact town center. Waverly’s name is associated with Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley novels, reflecting literary influences that reached many nineteenth-century American settlements. US Route 23 also makes the community an important stop on a major north–south route through the region. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Ohio.
