Cuyahoga Valley National Park lies along the Cuyahoga River. The Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath Trail is a restored section of the canal's original towpath.
In the park's north, the Canal Exploration Center details the 19th-century waterway's history. Towering Brandywine Falls is one of several waterfalls. The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad runs through the park.
Though a short distance from the urban areas of Cleveland and Akron, Cuyahoga Valley National Park seems worlds away. The park is a refuge for native plants and wildlife and provides routes of discovery for visitors. The winding Cuyahoga River gives way to deep forests, rolling hills, and open farmlands. Walk or ride the Towpath Trail to follow the historic route of the Ohio and Erie Canal.

Cuyahoga Valley is the only national park in the state of Ohio and one of three in the Great Lakes Basin.
The valley began providing recreation for urban dwellers in the 1870s when people came from nearby cities for carriage rides or leisure boat trips along the canal. In 1880, the Valley Railway became another way to escape urban industrial life.
The area was designated as a national park by Congress on October 11, 2000.
