Cuyahoga Valley National Park Cuyahoga Valley National Park is a United States national park that preserves and reclaims the rural landscape along the Cuyahoga River between Akron and Cleveland in Northeast Ohio. The 32,572-acre (51 sq mi; 132 km2) park[1] is administered by the National Park Service and is the only national park in the state of Ohio. Although Cuyahoga Valley was originally designated as a National Recreation Area in 1974, it became a national park 26 years later in 2000. It is one of just seven national parks located in the Midwestern United States region and one of two situated next to the Great Lakes.
Shenandoah National Park Shenandoah National Park /ˈʃɛnənˌdoʊə/ (often /ˈʃænənˌdoʊə/) is a national park that encompasses part of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the U.S. state of Virginia. The park is long and narrow, with the broad Shenandoah River and Valley on the west side, and the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont on the east. Although the scenic Skyline Drive is likely the most prominent feature of the park, almost 40% of the land area 79,579 acres (124.342 sq mi; 32,204 ha; 322.04 km2) has been designated as wilderness and is protected as part of the National Wilderness Preservation System.
