Hear the guide
This is the real narration from Parkwolf’s Cuyahoga Valley tour. It starts on its own as you approach each stop, so you never tap or read while driving.
“Up ahead is the Ledges trailhead, and I'd come for the narrow passages beneath the sandstone cliffs. Allow about an hour and a half for the one-point-eight-mile loop, with uneven rocks and steps.”
Real stops, real narration
Three real lines from the narration, each with the app’s tip for that stop, at three of the most-loved stops in Cuyahoga Valley.
“You're approaching the entrance road for Blossom Music Center, near Sarah's Vineyard. Blossom is the Cleveland Orchestra's summer home, with a covered Pavilion and a grassy Lawn in a wooded bowl.”
Heads up Traffic and lot exits can move slowly after some high-demand shows.
“Rockside Station is coming up, the Scenic Railroad's boarding point closest to Cleveland.”
Heads up A visit revolves around scheduled train departures.
“You're coming up on Viaduct Park, the starting point for a short walk to Great Falls of Tinker's Creek.”
Heads up Creek-level views require stairs and uneven footing.
