Hach-Otis Sanctuary is an 81-acre forested tract overlooking the beautiful Chagrin River valley. Located in Willoughby Hills and within 20 miles of downtown Cleveland, the preserve has been protected as a bird sanctuary since 1944.
When hikers start out on either of the park's two trails, they will cross a bridge that once was a part of East River Road, before it was moved to its present route in the late 1920s and renamed Akron-Peninsula Road.
