Treetops Walkway

Ohio History

Climbing the Hill

Unlike central Ohio, Cleveland features a fairly rolling landscape. The zoo has not been excluded from the challenge of hilly land, and actually uses the hills to its advantage. A long, beautiful walkway has been built to take visitors up to the hill where several buildings of animals reside. The walkway zigzags across the side of the hill, sloping gently (despite what your calves may be telling you!) up to the summit. We enjoyed the sparkling sunlight coming through the trees on our way up.
