Winter Hiking Trails - Northeast Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

No matter the season, Northeast Ohio features endless outdoor attractions for you to explore, whether you're in the mood for a quick, scenic hike or a longer journey that will lead you to some of the best views in all of Ohio. If you've only explored local trails during the warmer months, you're sure to love experiencing your favorite natural attractions framed by fresh snow, with quiet in the air and stunning scenery all around you. Ready to bundle up? Here are 8 of the best places for a winter hike around Northeast Ohio.

Rocky River Reservation – All Purpose Trail

Valley Pkwy., North Olmstead, OH 44070

One of the first Metro Parks established in the Cleveland area and still one of the largest, Rocky River Reservation offers sprawling outdoor beauty to explore during every season. If you're feeling adventurous, you can find countless trails that will take you through all of the gorgeous scenery that this park has to offer, from amazing shale cliffs to incredible views of the Rocky River from above. The All Purpose Trail is a great place to start if you're new to this park because it will take you straight to some amazing, elevated views. 

Edgewater Park – Upper Edgewater Park Loop

Upper Edgewater Dr., Cleveland, OH 44102

Featuring 9,000 feet of scenic shorelines along Lake Erie and nearly 150 acres to explore in total, Edgewater Park is an ideal choice when you want to enjoy a winter hike without leaving Cleveland. The Upper Edgewater Park Loop runs mostly along the waterfront, passing by Edgewater Beach, Edgewater Pier, and some lovely public art installations along the way. An icy Lake Erie also provides a beautiful backdrop for your winter nature photography.

North Chagrin Reservation – Squire's Lane Trail

3037 Som Center Rd., Willoughby Hills, OH 44094

For a quick, scenic hike with a truly impressive payoff at the end, try a trip along the Squire's Lane Trail at the North Chagrin Reservation. The trail checks in at just under a mile long each way, winding through the woods with a fairly flat, even surface. On a winter hike, you'll often find the forest covered in snow, creating beautiful scenes and providing plenty of peacefulness as you explore this relatively short trail in Willoughby Hills. At the end of the trail, you'll find the stunning Squire's Castle, which was built in the 1890s but looks as if it has been plucked straight from medieval times. It's an especially beautiful sight in the snow, making winter the perfect time to visit.

Munroe Falls Metro Park – Indian Spring Trail

521 S. River Rd., Munroe Falls, OH 44262

If you want to experience a variety of habitats and ecosystems on one hike, then the Indian Spring trail at Munroe Falls Metro Park is an ideal destination. This 2.2-mile trail loops around the beautiful Indian Spring, passing through wetlands, ponds, and a stream as you explore. It's a great place to spot some local wildlife, both in the forests and wetlands areas. If you're bringing the kids along for your hike, there are also some fantastic sledding hills located within this park.

Cuyahoga Valley National Park – Blue Hen Falls Trail

6974 Riverview Rd., Peninsula, OH 44264

Covering more than 33,000 acres and featuring more than 125 miles of trails winding through vast natural beauty, Cuyahoga Valley National Park offers more than enough to keep you exploring for many winters to come. One of the most popular trails in this large park is the Blue Hen Falls Trail, which leads to a beautiful waterfall that's especially lovely to visit on a snowy hike. The address linked above is to the Boston Mill Visitor Center at Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the perfect place to learn about the park, connect with the friendly, knowledgeable staff, and plan your next adventure.

Deep Lock Quarry Metro Park – Quarry Trail

5779 Riverview Rd., Peninsula, OH 44264

While natural beauty is abundant in Northeast Ohio, there are also some great hikes that challenge your expectations of what a trail can be. The Quarry Trail at Deep Lock Quarry Metro Park is one excellent example, traveling through what was once a quarry that helped supply raw materials for many of the region's industrial businesses. The quarry has since been converted into an outstanding park, and a hike here provides an interesting connection to local history to go along with plenty of natural scenery for a winter hike.

F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm – Seneca Trail

1828 Smith Rd., Akron, OH 44313

For a taste of nature in the heart of Akron, try a visit to the Seneca Trail at the F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm. The trail is more hilly than others on our list and provides some extra challenge, but it's still short enough at 1.5 miles to be a great fit for a winter hike. The trail winds through a pine forest, a beautiful prairie, and a suspension footbridge that offers some fantastic views of the park. There are also two shorter trails within the park if you're looking for more to explore.

Liberty Park – Ledges Trail

9999 Liberty Rd., Twinsburg, OH 44087

At just over a mile long, the Ledges Trail at Liberty Park is an ideal choice when you're in the mood for a quick hike that doesn't compromise on scenery. The icy, snowy scenes on this trail make it a popular choice during the winter, with ice gardens, small waterfalls, and flowing creeks to enjoy along the way. Liberty Park is also pet-friendly if you want to bring your furry friend along on your next winter adventure in Northeast Ohio.

Winter Discoveries

With so many trails to choose from, there are hikes to be enjoyed this winter no matter your experience level and tastes. So what wonders will you discover on Northeast Ohio trails this winter?

The Nutcracker Performances - Explore Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

People around the world love going out to see a performance of The Nutcracker at Christmastime. Whether it's a yearly tradition for your family or something you've always wanted to experience, you don't have to go far from home to see a performance of this classic ballet.

From high-production traditional versions to newer interpretations, there are so many places around Ohio where you can see a live performance of The Nutcracker this Christmas. Let's look at a few of the most popular in greater detail below.

The Nutcracker at the Ohio Theater

39 East State Street, Columbus, OH 43215

Every year around Christmas, the Ohio Theater hosts the talented artists of Ohio's BalletMet for a series of performances of The Nutcracker. This year, shows will run from December 8 all the way up to Christmas Eve. This production is extremely well-crafted, boasting gorgeous sets and visual effects as well as world-class dancing from the BalletMet's company dancers and students. With more than two weeks' worth of performances in Columbus' premier theater, you're sure to be able to fit one into your busy holiday schedule.

A post shared by BalletMet (@balletmet)

Yes, you read that right: The Ohio Theater offers an additional performance of The Nutcracker. This time, it's a special performance called My First Nutcracker, taking place on December 22 at 11 a.m. This show is a slightly abridged version of the full BalletMet version designed to make the experience better for families with young children and people with disabilities like autism. The shorter 1-hour performance time, smaller crowds, dimmed house lights, and quieter music all help make this version much easier for kids to sit through. If your kids do get antsy, audience members are invited to get up and move around during the performance or even leave the theatre if they need to.

The Nutty Nutcracker

182 South Main Street, Akron, OH 44308

Looking for a laugh or two this Christmas? On December 2 at 7 p.m., the Akron Civic Theatre will be hosting a performance of The Nutty Nutcracker, a parody version of the classic show. This production is an adults-only campy comedy that still showcases plenty of excellent ballet dancing. It turns the elegant timelessness of the original on its head in a way that veteran Nutcracker fans are sure to appreciate, and if nothing else, it's great for a fun, lighthearted night out during a hectic holiday season.

The Akron Nutcracker

The University of Akron's Dance Institute is partnering with the Verb Ballet's company dancers for a repeat performance of last year's hit new show, The Akron Nutcracker. This adapted version of the original aims to tell the classic story within a recreation of the Akron of the 1930s, complete with iconic local landmarks like Polsky's Department Store and the Stan Hywet estate. This limited-run Northeast Ohio show is being performed Dec. 22 and 23 at 7:30 p.m. each evening, so it's a great family activity to help you build up to the big day.

Nutcracker! Magical Christmas Ballet

500 Lakeside Avenue East, Cleveland, OH 44114

If you want to see a world-class production of The Nutcracker right here in Ohio, check out this year's performance of Nutcracker! Magical Christmas Ballet on Saturday, December 10 at the Cleveland Public Auditorium Music Hall. This year marks the 30th anniversary of this adaptation of the classic ballet, and its goals of spreading world peace and harmony are more important now than ever. Come see the artistry of some of Ukraine's top ballet dancers as they bring this dazzling show to life – it's an experience you'll never forget. 

The Nutcracker at Cincinnati Music Hall

1241 Elm Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202

A yearly staple at the Cincinnati Music Hall, The Nutcracker is arguably the most popular show performed by the Cincinnati Ballet. It's a great excuse to watch some of Ohio's most talented dancers practice their craft. And because it's so popular, you can expect high production values that will make the experience even more worthwhile. This year's performances run from December 15 all the way up to Christmas Eve, so find a free day on your calendar and book your tickets!

Nutcracker Hot Chocolate

650 Walnut Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202

Telling a familiar story from a new perspective is a great way to make it feel fresh and current again. On December 9 and 10, the Aronoff Center for the Arts will be hosting Nutcracker Hot Chocolate, a modernized version of The Nutcracker that has been adapted to showcase African American performers and culture. Acclaimed dance icon Debbie Allen created the show in 2008 to help inspire young dancers of color to keep pursuing their dreams. It's won a bevy of awards since then and continues to be a favorite of families everywhere.

The Hip Hop Nutcracker

317 East 5th Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202

The Nutcracker may be traditionally staged as a ballet, but who says it has to be? The Hip Hop Nutcracker reimagines this classic show as a thrilling hip-hop dance exhibition that is sure to make you think about Tchaikovsky's music in a whole new way. This touring performance will be stopping in Cincinnati for a show at the Taft Theatre on December 1 from 7:30 to 11:30 p.m. The tour features rapper Kurtis Blow as the show's MC, as well as a full troupe of talented artists dancing on a set that recreates modern-day New York City with gorgeous graffiti lighting effects.

Gluten-Free Dining Around Northeast Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

Dining options are limited when you can't eat an ingredient that's present in virtually everything. Whether you're just mildly gluten-sensitive or have a more serious allergic reaction, navigating the dining establishments in your area can be tricky—especially when you've just moved to a new neighborhood. Don't worry, though. If you're looking for a good place to have lunch in Northeast Ohio with safe, gluten-free menu options, here are nine of our favorites.

Mia Bella Restaurant

12200 Mayfield Rd., Cleveland, OH 44106

If you're craving Italian, Mia Bella is where you want to go. Not only is their food delicious, with a Mediterranean flair, but all of their pizza and pasta menu items have gluten-free options. Try the lobster ravioli with spinach, truffle oil, and tomato cream sauce. Or have some gnocchi with roasted garlic and kalamata olives, or pizzas like pepperoni and basil, prosciutto and arugula, and more. If you're going for lunch, be sure to go on Saturday, as they open at noon. But whenever you go, you're sure to have a great meal.

Ms. Julie's Kitchen

1809 S. Main St., Akron, OH 44301

Ms. Julie's, in Akron, takes pride in their healthy and ethical menu options. The entire menu is vegan, and plenty of gluten-free options are also available. Try their Sloppy Mac—a cross between mac and cheese and sloppy joe, with dairy-free cheese and brown rice pasta. Many of their ordinarily glutenous dishes have gluten-free options as well, including brown rice flour donuts and gluten-free carrot cake with cashew icing. Ms. Julie's has all your favorite comfort foods, made healthy, ethically, and guilt-free. While the restaurant is temporarily closed for renovations, Ms. Julie's should be back in business later this month.

They even have a gluten-free fryer for their french fries to prevent cross-contamination. Open Tuesday through Sunday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., Gregory's is a great place for a worry-free breakfast or lunch.

Chameleon Cafe Akron

23 S. Main St., Akron, OH 44308

This locally owned lunch spot has a variety of sandwiches, wraps, quesadillas, and more—all with gluten-free substitutes available upon request.

And be sure to check out their array of grilled cheeses, like jalapeno popper, cilantro lime, and bacon pickle. They also serve a wide array of coffees, teas, energy drinks, and more. Open until 4 p.m., it's a perfect spot to grab lunch in Akron.

Taza - A Lebanese Grill

1400 W. 6th St., Cleveland, OH 44113

While many of the locations on this list offer gluten-free substitutes, Taza simply has a wide range of menu options that aren't bread-based, making them gluten-free naturally. The shish lamb specialty salad has tomatoes, olives, and feta, with lemon herb vinaigrette or tahini dressing. The mixed grill has a selection of beef, lamb, and chicken. They also have kabobs, kaftas, and other options, many of them served with rice rather than a glutenous side. Be sure to confirm with the staff which items are gluten-free before ordering, but your lunch options here are pretty wide.

Bam! Healthy Cuisine

Dedicated to making food that's both healthy and flavorful, Bam! makes it a point to accommodate a variety of dietary needs and restrictions, including those with gluten issues.

You can order in advance for pickup or delivery or just go in and let them know your dietary needs. They're always happy to help you find something safe and healthy that you'll love.

Pete's Restaurant

4223 Tuscarawas St. W, Canton, OH 44708

If you're looking for simple and delicious casual dining, Pete's Family Restaurant in Canton is a great option. Their gluten-free options aren't labeled on the menu, but ask your server, and they'll help you find something you'll love.

This Mediterranean eatery features a wide variety of gluten-free offerings on its menu, all clearly labeled as such. Try one of their charcuterie boards, with various cheeses, fruits, honey, and roasted nuts. If you want something more substantial, go for the chicken avgolemono, poached with dill, parsley, lemon, and golden rice. Or try the Tuscan kale salad with pickled red onions, cherry tomatoes, and garlic-herb breadcrumbs, which can be made gluten-free upon request. Some of their menu offerings come with crackers, for which they also have gluten-free substitutes. Overall, Astoria Cafe is very accommodating to its gluten-free patrons and eager to help you find a lunch dish you'll love.
