Rocky River Reservation Cleveland Metroparks Hiking Trail Pictures

Rocky River Reservation has a vast range of beautiful sites to see. The Rocky River is the right name for this Cleveland Metropark. Everywhere you look you'll see weathered shale outcroppings extending out from the river and its banks. Many waterfalls flow over the large rocks as you hike near the river trails. The Geology is awesome from the river banks to the shale and sandstone ledges above. I love the shade of the majestic cottonwoods, willows, and sycamore trees near the river. Sleepy Hollow golf course is a cut above most other golf courses because it is located within this beautiful park. Frostville museum shows how our ancestors lived in the 1800's. The Rocky River nature center has scary looking fossil exhibits of sharks and armored fish that were found within the shale cliffs.
