Happy Days Hiking Trail

This is by far one of the best hiking trails i have done. Located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park it is rated moderate to difficult. In fact at some points you find yourself saying «is that really part of the path?» The scenery in some parts is jaw dropping as you pass by massive ledges and explore cool caves. Make sure to take the Overlook part of the trail which will give you beautiful views of the county side and dense woods of the park. You can see for miles.
The overlook also has picnic tables and grills which would make for an amazing place for a family picnic. You can sit on the edge of the ledges and look out over one of the best views in Northeast Ohio while munching on ribs or a burger…
If you start the trail at the Happy Days lodge parking area, you will walk through this tunnel under the road that looks more like a drain pipe. It is very neat, but it smells a little like. pee. Then you pass through a cemetery from the 1800’s that is very cool. From there the path takes you deep into the park, past Ice Box cave, around the ledges, up to overlook and then back around the loop. I am not sure of the total length of the trail, but i think all the legs of the loop combined are approximately 5 miles. I really dont see this as being a bike-​able trail but i dont remember seeing signs that you couldn’t.
Highly recommended for the kids on a nice summer day. Its so massive that its never crowded and you can move at your own pace.

This is a great hiking trail taking you deep into the National Park. My only issue is that this place needs trail markers that tell you how long the loop is! One wrong turn and your short hike turns into a day hike.
