Reviews
"Chapin Forest is always a beautiful place to visit and walk all year round. The winter months they have part of the trails lit up with lights which makes for a wonderful night walk in the snow. The Summer is all so peaceful and never too crowded except on holidays. The fall is just stunning with all of the colors and rocks. I walk here probably once a month."
"Trails are groomed beautifully, it's free, its lit at night in spots, the lodge has a nice fire, and difficulty ranges from very rough to very flat."
"Just a wonderful walk/hike. Easy to make it 3.5 miles in this park. Could make it an over 5 mile hike on well groomed & established trails. My favorite metro park over 3 counties (Cuyahoga, Geauga & Lake)."
"So nice there for an evening stroll pass are completely lit with a wire light system it's amazing great pictures to get night kids will have A-blast took the Cubscouts there today had a great time"
"This connects to Chapman forest trails all the way through to highway 306 Chillicothe Road. Well developed trails and great hiking for all ages. Great views and different topography to see. A must see, with picnic areas and grills. Great day get away."
