Can your dog actually hike here?
Can dogs hike in Cuyahoga Valley National Park?
Yes Yes. A leashed dog can use the trails.
One of the most dog-friendly national parks, with over 110 miles of trail open to leashed dogs.
Where dogs can go
Brandywine Falls, the Ledges and most of the park's 100+ miles of trail, on a 6-ft leash. Not in buildings or on the Scenic Railroad.

When Rhea was here
