2Cuyahoga Valley National Park (Ohio)

Cuyahoga Valley National Park, located between Cleveland and Akron, offers a peaceful escape into the heart of Ohio’s fall splendor. The park is known for its rolling hills, waterfalls, and lush forests, all of which come alive with vibrant fall colors. Maple, oak, and hickory trees dominate the landscape, painting the park in shades of red, orange, and yellow.

One of the highlights of visiting Cuyahoga Valley in autumn is the scenic Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, which takes visitors on a relaxing journey through the park’s most beautiful fall landscapes. Brandywine Falls, the park’s most famous waterfall, is particularly stunning when framed by fall foliage. The Ledges Trail also offers incredible views of the park’s rock formations and fall colors.
