Cuyahoga Valley National Park Virginia Kendall Ledges Hiking Trail Pictures Movie
Cuyahoga Valley National Park contains the Virginia Kendall Ledges park and is
located in the Akron Cleveland Ohio area.
Around 320 million years ago, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and Virginia Kendall ledges had fast-moving
streams from the north and east flowed into an inland sea covering
Ohio at that time. The Cuyahoga Valley National Park Ledges are located within the Virginia Kendall Park Area of Cuyahoga
Valley National Park. Sand, gravel and quartz pebbles were carried by the water and deposited in a wide delta. After
millions of years, this debris in the Cuyahoga Valley National park
compacted and became Sharon conglomerate. The milk-white quartz pebbles poking from
the Cuyahoga Valley National Park Virginia and Kendall Park ledges are tell-tale
signs that these ledges, as well as most of the other cliffs in the region that are named
ledges, are comprised of Sharon conglomerate.
 Cuyahoga Valley National Park contains within it the Virginia Kendall park Ledges which are located south of Happy Days Visitor Center. They extend for about two miles and are 30 feet in height. Other habitats include a red pine forest.
 Just a short drive from the major metropolitan areas of Cleveland and Akron, Cuyahoga Valley National Park protects 33,000 acres along the banks of the Cuyahoga River. Though such a short distance from urban environments, the park is worlds away. The winding Cuyahoga—the "crooked river," as named by American Indians—gives way to rolling floodplain, steep valley walls and ravines, and lush upland forests. Cuyahoga Valley National Park is a refuge for flora and fauna, and provides both recreation and solitude for Northeastern Ohio's residents and visitors. Park trails, from rugged backcountry hiking trails to the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail, a graded biking and hiking trail, offer something for everyone.
 Virginia Kendall park has a rich cultural legacy as well. Remains of the Ohio & Erie Canal, which traveled through the valley in the 19th and early 20th centuries, offer a glimpse into the past. Sustainable farming ventures help preserve the valley's agricultural heritage.
 Whether you want to hike, bike, birdwatch, picnic, golf, fish, ski, ride the Scenic Railroad, explore the history of the Ohio & Erie Canal, or attend national park ranger-guided programs, concerts, and art exhibits, this park has it all.
