    Tips

    March 3, 2025

    Tucked away from the river, this stretch of the Des Plaines River Trail offers a peaceful escape surrounded by towering trees. In the summer, the dense canopy provides a cool, shaded path, while autumn transforms it into a golden tunnel of falling leaves. Winter brings a quiet, snow-draped wonderland, and in spring, fresh greenery and blooming wildflowers make it feel like a hidden sanctuary. No matter the season, this spot delivers a truly magical experience.
