The "Solar System Walk" is an educational trail providing a scaled representation of the solar system, covering about three-quarters of a mile, in the Rocky River Reservation. It follows the all-purpose trail, beginning at the northern entrance of South Mastick Picnic area, located along Valley Parkway, just south of the Mastick Road

entrance.

The walk is designed to give an appreciation for the enormous size of the universe, with signs posted along the trail marking the Sun and each of the planets at its average distance from the Sun on a scale of one foot equalling one million miles.
