The Ohio & Erie Canal Reservation stretches through the villages of Cuyahoga Heights and Valley View and other surrounding communities. The reservation follows a portion of its namesake, the historic 309-mile Ohio and Erie Canal. Together with the Cuyahoga River, the northernmost canal provides wildlife management areas, fishing opportunities and scenic beauty. Picnicking, hiking trails, an All Purpose Trail, and unique natural and cultural heritage of this valley are also featured in this reservation.
