Plateau Trail Details
Winding through varied landscapes in a relatively secluded area of the park, the trail is known for its length and stunning scenery. The wide, well-maintained path runs uphill from the trailhead before leveling out in a dense pine and deciduous forest. The arching canopies of the tall, stately trees that line the trail make an intimate corridor effect, offering respite from some of the park's more popular trails and the busy streets of nearby Cleveland. Following a hemlock-lined ravine, the trail eventually passes a few ponds before looping back to the trailhead. Trailhead: Oak Hill Area / 4.9 mi.
