"Natural, Crown Jewel Attraction."

Love this place. Very interesting ledges/ rock formations. Nice afternoon hike and exploring. A low-key, natural, Crown Jewel attraction for NE Ohio.

Great little park

Since I lived next door to the park it was a great place to hike with the family. My first date with my now husband was at the Ledges. Be sure to check out the park.

Fascinating place but with ups and downs in maintainance

Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park is only 167 acres but it has a fascinating variety of crevices, cliffs, caves, rock formations, and waterfalls. Since my first visit six years ago, the parking lot has been enlarged and the pit-toilet bathroom improved. Also boardwalks were added to...More
