Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve

One of Northeast Ohio’s hidden treasures, the Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve (CLNP) is a unique urban wildlife haven. Located on the shores of Lake Erie just a few miles east of downtown Cleveland, this jewel of Mother Nature offers 2.5 miles of access to lakefront trails for the community. The preserve also serves as a respite for urbanites and a sanctuary for animals and migratory birds. Managed by the Port of Cleveland – the preserve is open from daylight to dusk, year-round.
