CanalWay Center Trailhead

Begin your journey outside CanalWay Center and follow the trail downhill into the scenic Cuyahoga River Valley. Pause at the Blue Heron Boardwalk to search for signs of beaver activity before continuing toward the Towpath Trail. Cross the bridge over the Ohio & Erie Canal, then choose your direction: head north for an 8-mile trek to downtown Cleveland or venture south for approximately 4 miles to reach the serene landscapes of Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
