Brandywine Falls is very scenic and easy to visit (see the location on Google Maps). It is one of the highlights of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. There is a parking area, trail and board walk to the base and the top of the falls.




Brandywine Falls. This is the wooden deck. First, we'll try the upper level. It's a "rough road" (see the sign above) to the low deck, so be careful.



Old trees on the way to the upper deck; Even the squirrels are anxious to see the falls...


A glimpse at the multi-colored rocks at the falls; There are 3 different layers of rock at the falls in 3 different colors.


A view from the top of the falls, stay back from the edge...

In 1880s, there was a whole village here which had disappeared. Not all early settlements were successful...
