Clifton Gorge State Nature Preserve Hiking Trail – Yellow Springs, Ohio
A winding pathway descends through a lush, green forest, flanked by a large rock face on one side and a wooden fence on the other. A sign along the path announces that rock climbing is prohibited, ensuring the safety of visitors and the preservation of the natural area.
The preserve includes 268 acres of gorges along two miles of the Little Miami River. It is part of a series of adjoining parks that include the Glen Helen Nature Preserve and John Bryan State Park, which add almost 2,000 additional acres of protected area.
