Clifton Gorge State Nature Preserve — photo spot in 2381 OH-343, Yellow Springs, OH 45387, USA
Clifton Gorge State Nature Preserve
Steep sandstone walls, a narrow river gorge and small cascades create intimate landscape frames — ideal for textured rock, flowing-water long exposures, and seasonal color (spring greenery, autumn leaves, winter ice). Best light is low sun from morning or late afternoon; overcast days soften harsh shadows in the canyon. Trails are well-marked; parking at the preserve lot off OH-343. No fee; sections can be slippery—wear proper shoes. Weekdays and early mornings offer fewer people.
