Sprawling for a hundred mile stretch along the shore of Lake Erie, the Cleveland metro area is clearly a big urban center, but with little effort visitors will find miles of city park trails, lake-side beaches and a well-rounded assortment of museums and sporting events.
The Vesuvius Recreation Area, named for the old Vesuvius iron furnace, is the Wayne National Forest's premier developed site. This 143 acre complex is located 6.5 miles north of Ironton, just off State Route 93.
