Chippewa Creek Gorge Scenic Overlook

Chippewa Creek Gorge Scenic Overlook is located at the Route 82 entrance to Brecksville Reservation.

Chippewa Creek Gorge holds the earth’s history in its rocks. Chippewa Creek, in the northern section of Brecksville Reservation, flows through a remarkable gorge that was left behind by the glaciers that once covered this area. The top layer of rock along the Chippewa Creek Gorge is Berea Sandstone, which forms large boulders as it breaks off and tumbles into the creek. Today water in Chippewa Creek continues the process of erosion reshaping the rocks and gorge.
