Top Ten Facts That Prospective Graduate Applicants Should Know About Kent State.....

 
           — NUMBER THREE —

The Cuyahoga Valley National Park, whose boundary is 12 miles of the town of Kent, was the sixth most visited US National Park in 2008. (The top five parks for visitors are the Great Smoky Mountains NP, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Olympic, and Yellowstone.)

For those who enjoy biking, jogging or hiking, there are very pleasant trails between the town of Kent and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, with dedicated bike/hike paths covering nearly the full distance.

If your non-physics interests lean in a different direction, here are some other noteworthy local attractions:
Music:
- The Cleveland Orchestra;
- Blossom Music Center;
- The Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame;
- A vibrant local Folk Music scene.
Pro Sports:
- Cavs;   - Indians;   - Browns.
