Approximate distances. Check flights and bus, train or boat schedules before you travel.
From Cleveland Hopkins Airport (CLE), about 19 km away, the light rail red line reaches downtown. Long-distance trains stop at Lakefront Station by the lake.
How many days
Two days: one for the waterfront and downtown, another for University Circle; an extra half day for Cuyahoga Valley.
When to go
From May to October, with a lively lakeside and colorful fall foliage in Cuyahoga Valley. Winter is cold with snow, and the museums are open year-round.
The seasons shown are the most usual ones; nature doesn't always follow the calendar.
Do you need a car?
Not for downtown and University Circle, which are connected by light rail and the HealthLine bus. For Cuyahoga Valley and Sandusky, a car helps.
