Gravity Hill We literally just left Gravity Hill and it seriously did work! We didn't test the water running up hill, but we did drive it twice.

Gravity Hill Located near Devou Park is Covington's gravity hill. Every time friends or family come to Cincinnati I bring them here and it blows their mind. It really freaks them out when I jump outside and run alongside my truck. I've even gotten out and poured out a bottle of water and it runs uphill.
