Beautiful and peaceful. The small loop goes around a nice wetland. The main path connects with the Des Plaines River Trail. Gravel path. Flat. Once you get to the DPRT is is forested with shadows. Plenty of parking. Horses allowed (with permit). 1 unisex washroom by the parking lot.
It awesome because beaver live there and I got to see how there home look from the top.
Nice trails
This trail system is laid out along the DesPlaines River in northern Lake County IL. Ponds, tons of wildlife, great birding location, lots of mature oak and hickory trees. At the trail head there are three restaurants; Captain Porky's, The Shanty and a third restaurant that was called Savannah's, I think, and it may have changed hands since. The first two I mentioned have great food and I haven't eaten at the third. Big BP station across Wadsworth Rd. with a McDonald's there as well. At the intersection of Wadsworth Rd. and Hwy. 41. Only a few minutes from Gurnee Mills Mall. Excellent trail system.
Lovely walk on a nice day. Good variation between forest and wetlands and prairie. Wide grades paths would be good for many types of use including wheelchair.
