Trail restrictions lifted for nesting bald eagles in Cuyahoga Valley National Park

BRECKSVILLE, Ohio - The nesting bald eagle pair we told you about on NewsChannel5 in February successfully raised one chick this
year, and the eaglet recently fledged.

The eagle pair successfully hatched two eggs, but only the one survived.

The Pinery Narrows area of Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP), which was closed during the nesting period, has lifted the restrictions and the following areas are now open:

The railroad tracks and 30-foot right-of-way on either side are open to all pedestrian traffic, from the Route 82 Bridge at Station Road visitor use area north to the railroad tracks at Fitzwater Road and the Cuyahoga River downstream of the Brecksville Dam to the Fitzwater Road Bridge is open to all water activities.
