The Conservancy for Cuyahoga Valley National Park invites you to Topography.
The evening begins at Howe Meadow with a short hike up a wooded path, a welcome cocktail in hand and live music in the air. The trail ends at Indigo Lake, where you’ll enjoy a choice selection of hors d’oeuvres leading up to a one-of-a-kind dining experience as the sun gently sets beyond calm lake waters. Then, finish the evening with good friends around a crackling campfire.
All proceeds go toward the Trails Now Fund, which provides immediate support for trail maintenance, visitor amenities and new trailheads within Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
