Fodor's Expert Review Edgewater Park

Catch the best west-side, land-based view of Cleveland's skyline from upper Edgewater on the bluffs above Lake Erie's shore. Lower Edgewater is where you will find the park's swimming beach and summer sun–bathed playgrounds. A tree-lined path that buzzes with walkers, runners, and rollerbladers in summer connects the upper and lower parks. The lower park has a fishing pier, bait shop, and fitness course. The stiff wind off Lake Erie attracts kite flyers, boomerang enthusiasts, windsurfers, and the occasional hang glider. Picnic facilities are also available.
