Gorge Metro Park: Cleveland City Park Guide

Well maintained park and trails although a couple of trails are currently closed. The Gorge Trail is open and has very scenic views of the Cuyahoga River and rock formations. The parking area is fairly large and there are restrooms.

Beautiful scenery along the Cuyahoga River. A well marked trail led to the dam and waterfall. It was a steep climb to get to the cave. The views were amazing. The trail is a challenge in some areas with steps and uneven footing making it unsuitable for bike riding, strollers, or wheel chairs. There are picnic tables and clean flush toilets close to the paved parking lot.

We love coming to the park! There are so many different trails, paths and connection points. Decent amount of elevation, which makes for a challenging hike sometimes. There are many different areas of rock formations and areas walking next to the river. Be prepared for lots of steps to view the gorge close up. I can’t remember if they installed a ramp or not. 🤔 If you’re looking for a good hike, this is one of my favorite spots!

Lovely park and trails. Summit county metro parks are always improving, so I look forward to every visit being better than the last. The grounds are well maintained. There are picnic tables in open areas to rest, and there's handicap parking for those of us seniors who just want to take a short stroll. Also, there are bathrooms close, and the parking lot is well maintained.

Beautiful scenery in the middle of the city. Great views of the river. Scenic rocky outcroppings. Convenient parking with nice restrooms. The gorge trail by the river is paved for a bit and then gets a bit tricky down to the dam. Worth the effort to relax in this incredible setting!
