    Nice comfortable path wide enough for two. Several bridges to cross. 3.5 mile hike plus many more trails. Fantastic ledges to explore for any age. Spend your day taking in the beauty of nature. 3 very nice routes you can take. There is even a connecting trail to take you over to Ledges area

    What a fantastic gem! So many trails and gorgeous ledges!! Over 320 million years old, just unbelievable. This place gets filled fast, and so worth it too. Many trails to choose from. These are marked stay on the trails, these are not wheelchair accessible. Pets are welcome but must be leashed & be responsible and pet up after your pets. Great place to bring the kiddos and let them explore (supervised). Definitely bring your trekking poles, wear proper shoes, dress accordingly the temperature is roughly 10 - 15 degrees cooler. Check the website for any cave closure or trail closure so you are not caught off guard. Park rangers are trekking about if you need assistance. Picnic tables and WC's are available. Grab your shoes, poles & water and #gooutside!!

    Nice trails. Not too much to see but it's peaceful. I prefer the ledges.

    A beautiful section of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. A few different hiking trails - some connect to other parts of the park and you can get a really long hike in if you desire. Beautiful lake and shelters built by the Civilian Conversation Core. Great sledding hill in the winter.

    Always nice, but the upkeep of the trail has gone downhill in recent years. I've been coming here for over 15 years and since the drainage of the lake there has been nothing but mud 24/7 and lots of overflow. It's a shame.

    Beautiful rustic trails! Hike either the lake trails, or the ledge trails! Giant boulders to climb around and on, with unique foliage, and roots! Breathtaking either in the summer or fall!

    This is a nice gathering place in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park with an accessible shelter and picnic tables right by the small lake. There are several loop trails of varying difficulty and all are scenic. They can be connected to make a longer hike or run.

    My favorite park to walk, especially early in the morning. The trail is well maintained and has great views.

    Our family loves hiking the trails during any season, but it’s especially cool in the summer heat. Perfect length and difficulty for all ages. We’ve walked the trails for generations and still enjoy discovering the rock formations. Great to see park staff on site informing visitors about the fauna, flora and rocks. I will never forget, “don’t ever take a ride on a glacier. It’s a one way trip!”

    Beautiful hike through Cuyahoga today. Perfect 60 and overcast. Great way to test out new gear.

    My sister and her husband were recently married in the Octogon Pavillion. It was chilly and rainy that day, but the two fireplaces helped to keep the temperature very tolerable. It's a very nice facility with plenty of parking, and conveniently had restrooms located in the building.

    We got there kinda late and so we didn’t get to go far but it was really cool seeing the huge drops in the rocks along side of the trail there are bathrooms wheelchair accessible and wheelchair accessible parking lots lots of field for a game of football or socket or even frisbee or kite’s dog friendly park

    It's a great place just to go walk around only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the fishing is not very good there's weeds that are coming up throughout the whole Pond . So you can only go bobber fishing And you still get tangled every time and every time other than that the place is nice. Good place to go with your kids and family

    I came here to spend the afternoon with my friend, and it was the most enjoyable time I've had in months. The scenery is fantastic, the walking paths are great, and there's enough variety as you walk around that you can't get bored. The facilities were well maintained, and parking was easy to find. My only complaint is that there's not a lot of seating on paths, so if you don't have a lot of stamina or if you have health issues, you might need to pack a lawn chair.

👍👍 One the most beautiful places and hiking trails.great for pictures, sunrise, sunset, walk, run. I have enjoyed the place in different seasons my favorite is winter. It’s so quiet and not that crowded. The only issue with the place is the parking lot is too small compared to the number of visitors. D...
