Visit website http://www.clemetparks.com/visit/index.asp?action=rdetails&reservations_id=1009 for more information Euclid Creek Reservation is named for the Euclid Creek which runs the length of the reservation. It features wooded hillsides where the rare rock chestnut oak grows. The reservation is located in Euclid, South Euclid and Richmond Heights. The southern portion of the reservation is the site of a "ghost town." The village of Bluestone flourished in the late 1800s and early 1900s when its populace quarried the blue-gray siltstone for use in building sidewalks and other construction. Today, the only remaining exposure of bluestone is in Quarry Picnic Area. Deer, fox and other wildlife have relocated to the reservation because of the diminishing open spaces in adjacent areas. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reservation Amenities All Purpose Trail Legend # Euclid Creek Trail Ball Field Legend # Highland Picnic Area 1 Physical Fitness Trail Legend # Euclid Creek Fitness Trail Physically Challenged Access Legend # Highland Picnic Area 1 Welsh Woods Picnic Area 3 Picnic Area Legend # Highland Picnic Area 1 Kelley Picnic Area 5 Welsh Woods Picnic Area 3 Picnic Area - Reservable Legend # Rear Quarry Reserved Picnic Area 4 Upper Highland Reserved Picnic Area 2 Sledding Area Legend # Kelley Picnic Area 5 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Euclid Creek: Directions I-90.....
