No reviews yet · Cleveland Metroparks

OVERVIEW Williams Woods Backcountry Sites are designed for users to hike-in only. They are great for backpacking and microadventures where sleeping under the stars is the goal whether hiking in from Lake Metroparks , Geauga Park District , or hiking from the designated parking area within North Chagrin Reservation (Strawberry Picnic Area). Guests should expect to hike at least 2.5 miles to the backcountry sites from where they are parking in Cleveland Metroparks. The sites are designed to model the camping triangle which separates the tent sites from the food storage area and kitchen area. To (via site)
