Cuyahoga Valley National Park

A short trip from Cleveland, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Ohio’s only National Park, provides solitude and great outdoor recreation. The Cuyahoga River, “crooked river”, winds through the park, surrounded by lush forest and gently rolling hills. There are over 125 miles within the park for visitors to hike, and multiple trails to bike. The Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail follows the historic canal and offers a lovely bike route. Park visitors can hop on a train and take an excursion through the park on the scenic railroad tour.

Come to find refuge from the urban lifestyle or to find a new appreciation for the state of Ohio!

Just spent this past weekend camping, hiking and enjoying the water here with some friends. It's a beautiful and well taken care of park with really helpful and friendly staff. Highways and trains are a little close but look passed those, it's a great park!

I grew up within walking distance to this park. Took me until I was 20 to realize what a treasure it really is. It's an amazing park for hiking, biking, or just relax. I'm glad to see it's a top 10 most visited national park. I hope to see this park continue to be a great national park so my kids can one day enjoy the park too!

I was hoping this site would provide information about CVNP, a place I know and love; am a new member to the conservation association and, unless there is more to the site, am disappointed.

Have made several trips to the Cuyahoga Valley National Park this past summer. Brandywine Falls and gorge was beautiful. Boston Mills a nice place to rest. Pine Hollow and Little Meadow a very pleasant walk. Plan on several more yet this year.
